Set in Stone The ancient art of stone carving is alive and well in Warren Laura Travis’ love affair with stone reads like a storybook. It began while visiting Ireland in the ‘80s, where she roamed amongst ruined abbeys to discover high crosses and stonework, “the really ancient stuff,” most of which sat in open fields or hillsides. Then came a stone carving class in West Virginia, where she attended a week full of classes in traditional Irish music, dance, and crafts. “I was totally hooked in no time,” Laura remembers. The ancient art of stone is opposite than that of clay; the process, Laura explains, is reductive rather than additive, and the material is obviously more resistant. “Those puckish little figures, animals, and knotwork I had been inspired by on my travels quickly found their way into my carvings,” she says. After a course at RISD under artist Gail Whitsutt-Lynch, Laura went on to debut her work at an AS220 show in 1998 (where she also had a studio for eight years) and earn an MFA in sculpture/stone carving
from Maryland Institute College of Art. Today, Laura continues to carve limestone, soapstone, and slate, exploring the boundaries between “fine” and “folk” art, and hosts classes on stone carving. A typical relief stone carving class, Laura says, runs for two days – a weekend – where students get to feel what it’s like to hold and use a chisel, create a design suited to the piece of salvaged stone, and try out different carving techniques. Says Laura, “It’s great to be retired from full-time teaching after 25 years and have this be my ‘job’!” Find Laura during her annual Holiday Art Sale at 30 Cutler Street, Warren on November 30 and December 1, when you can also get info about upcoming classes at the Jamestown Arts Center, Blackstone River Theatre, RISD, and her studio at nearby Cutler Mills.

On the 399th anniversary of the first Thanksgiving, Mount Hope Farm asserts its own history
12
The Bay • November 2019
Creative financial plans designed with, and around, you. Turkey, cranberry sauce, and buckled shoes – we are all familiar with “the first Thanksgiving,” as illustrated in a thousand children’s books. But what if that famous feast didn’t start in Plymouth, Massachusetts? What if the very first gathering took place in Bristol, Rhode Island? “The rumor is that it was actually here,” says Gina MacDonald, managing director of Mount Hope Farm. “Primary sources indicate that there was a gathering in Plymouth. We don’t argue with that. But there was a harvest gathering here, and that has been well documented. So, the question is, when did Thanksgiving become Thanksgiving? We say that the harvest gathering here was probably the first.” Skeptics may recoil at such an iconoclastic idea, especially the year before Turkey
Day’s quadricentennial, but Gina points to some provocative facts. Mount Hope Farm is located next to King Philip’s Seat, a sizable cliff nestled in the woods, where the Pokanoket people would gather for important meetings. The same land might have made a natural meeting ground for the two disparate peoples. Susan Maloney serves on the Mount Hope Farm board, and she speaks reverently of King Philip’s Seat. “It’s very quiet,” she says. “It’s almost spiritual. You can see how this would be sacred ground of the Pokanokets.” The exact date of that feast is unknown, and no primary sources describe the celebration. But historians believe that the feast took place at the end of October, the traditional harvest season, and that Plymouth colonists attended. The story is still essentially tragic, since the feast was followed by war, disease, and broken treaties. Susan and Gina recommend Nathaniel Philbrick’s Mayflower, an exhaustive history of the Pilgrims and their aftermath. But for that one day, at least, folks seem to have overlooked their differences and broken bread together. Mount Hope Farm is a storied property. Originally called Montaup, the land was cultivated by several different owners over the next 200 years, until the famous Haffenreffer family took over in 1917. Some of that estate now belongs to Brown University, but the remaining 127 acres has become a farm, an inn, and a wedding destination. Guests can stay in the same room that once quartered President George Washington. Many visitors are unaware that the Mount Hope Trust is a nonprofit organization, neither private institution nor public park. Aside from its bevy of goats and chickens, Mount Hope has several raised beds, where volunteers and URI master gardeners raise thousands of pounds of produce for the East Bay Food Bank. “It’s not a house museum,” adds Gina. “We’re not frozen in time. It’s a living organism. I look out there, and the land is being farmed as it was probably farmed 400 years ago. The crops are different, and the people certainly are, but the use of the land is the same.” MountHopeFarm.org -Robert Isenberg

Over the past several years, medical marijuana has become increasingly popular. Rhode Island was the 11th state to legalize it, and at this point in time there are over 15,000 medical marijuana patients in Rhode Island. With popularity comes big business. But Lisa Cadan and Cassy Heneault would like to change that. “We’re unique in the cultivator arena
because there are a lot of big companies that are doing nothing for the patients’ side,” says Lisa. “They’re in it for the money. We’re a small family owned business.” Based in Bristol, Elle-Cie, LLC is Rhode Island’s first and only women-owned medical marijuana cultivation company. Lisa and Cassy are co-owners, and have built the company from the ground up.
“In addition to providing top-quality medicine that’s safe for patients and creating a work environment that we and our employees are happy to come to every day – we’d like to earn a living to support our families,” Lisa adds. “Elle-Cie” represents the letters “L/C” (Lisa/Cassy) but also loosely translates from French to “her company”. Cassy, whose background includes sales management, is also the co-owner of a small wholesale farm that supplies local restaurants with fresh vegetables. While Lisa has more than 20 years as a marketing consultant with a BFA from Tufts University, she says that starting a business in the cannabis market comes with a unique set of challenges. “If we’re being honest, it was a complete disaster – in addition to the normal challenges and hurdles any new business owner experiences, there was an onslaught of personal challenges to overcome.” However, after two years in business, Lisa remains unshaken. “We are going to succeed. We’re a small, women owned business – we’re Rhode Islanders – our kids go to school here. Our employees are Rhode Islanders...It’s always gratifying to hear positive patient feedback – which results in larger orders from the compassion centers.” A compassion center is where patients with qualifying conditions can obtain medical marijuana; both Summit Compassion Center in Warwick and Greenleaf Compassion Center in Portsmouth consistently stock from Ellie-Cie. Reliability and availability is a top priority to Lisa: “I think it’s important that patients can get our products every month.” Elle-Cie’s ideals are clear. “We don’t use big companies. We’re not a multimillion-dollar company. We’re self-funded, and we came from the patient advocacy side,” says Lisa. “We care about making sure things are done right by the patients.” Elle-Cie.com -Chuck Staton

Today, Caitlin is an agritourism consultant to local farmers, creator and blogger of OurNaturalHeritage.org, an online source for fun and easy ways for families to explore and learn about the environment, and as of last April acts as coordinator for the markets at Hope & Main in Warren. The Tiverton native lives in Bristol with her husband Jeff and young daughter Freya.

The Best Gifts Come in Small Packages The local food movement is not about [an interest in] cooking for me. I’ve always loved nature and wanted to be a marine biologist. Class discussions always led to conversations about conservation issues, declining fish populations, plastics in the water, and what are we going to do about it? Understanding the issues and making sure policy writers and politicians understand is one thing, but it comes down to changing human behavior. I’ve always had a desire to make society aware of these issues. It motivated me to get more interested in the local food movement and farming. Everybody eats, they care about where their food comes from, so it is an incredible connection to nature and the environment. UVM has an amazing cooperative extension program for agritourism. I attended some of the conferences and spoke at one about social media and farms. I wanted to bring these ideas to farms in Rhode Island. Farmers are receptive to diversifying their income by offering agritourism experiences such as classes, workshops, tours, tastings. I’ll design and plan the program so farmers can focus on their day-to-day farm operations. It can be as simple as a tomato tasting for Roots Farm in Tiverton: We had 30 people show up on a hot August afternoon to eat different types of tomatoes. It was super fun and it brought consumers to the farm for an event both educational and social. I use a lot of my educational program with the markets at Hope & Main. In the five years since Hope & Main opened, they have issued 200 licenses to members. I love the idea that anyone can start a business using sustainable foods, which in turn creates jobs and supports the local economy. The whole loop of it is endless and it is fascinating to me. Check out Hope & Main’s “Meet Your Maker” program that kicks off Sunday, November 24, from 10am-2pm.

The Great
East Bay History Trail Before you officially hunker down for winter, grab your tri-corner hat and explore these historic gems By Andrea E. McHugh
It’s a sin most New Englanders find themselves committing
at one time or another: taking for granted the rich history in our own backyard. This time of year, Mother Nature has some serious swagger, spreading her Insta-envy backdrops around every bewitching stone wall and winding country road, and there’s no bettear place to take it all in than L’il Rhody’s East Bay. We’ve put together a history trail so you can make your own autumn bucket list, reacquainting yourselves with the best of your grade school field trips – only this time you’re paying attention.
S
tart with an authentic 18th-century experience at Coggeshall Farm Museum, where you’ll see that spotty Wi-Fi is a First World problem as you take in the daily exhaustive work of Federalist-era tenant farmers: weeding the garden, frying johnnycakes over the hearth, carpentry, and handling heritage-breed animals. Watch historic interpreters in period dress recreate a day in the life on this 48-acre salt marsh farm on Bristol’s picturesque Poppasquash Neck. Pro tip: keep your new leopard print flats safely at home as you’re likely to get a little dirty down on this “hands-on” farm. Perfect for all ages and interests, but keep an eye out for special events and workshops. Next, your history lesson swaps farm life for a Federal-style mansion owned by one of the richest families in Colonial America who amassed the bulk of their wealth in the slave trade. Designed by famed architect Russell Warren, Linden Place was built in the heart of Bristol in 1810 for General George DeWolf, for the purpose of entertaining with grandeur. In an act of pure cowardice, General George fled Linden Place in the dead of night less than 15 years later after facing financial ruin. While the regular tour of Linden Place dishes on the mansion and people who called it home through the years, the specialty tours, including The Ladies of Linden Place and Tales of the Slave Trade, take a deeper dive and will mesmerize even a Jeopardy-level history buff. Both Blithewold Mansion, Gardens & Arboretum and Mount Hope Farm are Bristol attractions that may just be even more interesting on the outside than the inside. Though Blithewold, the turn-of-the-century summer home of the Van Wickle family, boasts period furnishings and family heirlooms throughout the 45-room mansion, it’s the surrounding 33-acre estate grounds that’ll mesmerize your inner horticulturist. Gardens, plantings, pathways, lawns, and stone structures invite visitors to stay a while. Nearby, Mount Hope Farm is a wooded promontory that was once part of the 7,000 acres owned by Massasoit Ousa Mequin, the great sachem of the Wampanoag Nation. Historians believe these lands hosted the first “Thanksgiving Feast,” not Plymouth Rock. The first battle of King Philip’s War took place nearby in 1675. In the mid-1700s, a stately home was constructed there that was commandeered during the Revolutionary War. Today, you can stay at the Governor Bradford House, dating back to 1745, as a guest (staycation anyone?). Mount Hope Farm can be considered the community cornerstone of Bristol, hosting a popular year-round farmers market, summer camps for kids, and special events ranging from yoga to swanky soirees. (And if you’re walking the trails, keep your eyes peeled for a centuries-old arrowhead.)
(Left) Mount Hope Farm has special ties to the first Thanksgiving (Right) Coggeshall Farm recreates the daily life of Federalist-era farmers
A quick drive over the Mount Hope Bridge (marking its 90th birthday this year) and Sakonnet River Bridge will usher you into Tiverton. Head down Route 77 for a bucolic country drive until you reach Tiverton Four Corners, a quaint 18th-century village home to saltbox-style shops, galleries, and studios. Even though the temperatures are dropping, you’d be remiss to not enjoy a scoop of Gray’s homemade ice cream, served every day of the year (forego any faux pumpkin spice elsewhere and indulge in Gray’s maple walnut delight). The Mill Pond Shops are a stone’s throw from Gray’s and you’ll love exploring this little collective of artist studios and galleries, workspaces and retail shops housed in a historic building. Head over the Sakonnet River to Portsmouth – nestled on the northernmost tip of
Linden Place
Aquidneck Island – where you’ll find Patriots Park. No, this is not a tribute to Belichek’s bunch. Instead, this site, which marks the Battle of Rhode Island fought on August 29, 1778, is home to a memorial dedicated to the 1st Rhode Island Regiment, better known as the “Black Regimen.” Patriots Park is the first of many locations in the state that will receive a Rhode Island Slave History Medallion, which marks sites that have a historical connection to slavery and enslaved people. Blink too fast and you’ll miss it as the monument is located on the off ramp on Route 114 North (by the Route 24 split). Park in the pull-off immediately on your left and prepare to claim peak Rhode Islander status (because chances are, your friends haven’t ever been). If you’ve worked up a thirst, head to Greenvale Vineyards on the banks of
the Sakonnet. While a wine tasting will introduce you to a myriad of local varieties, the true highlight of this 19th-century summer estate is the tasting room, a former stable that’s been fully restored. Built in 1863, it’s part of the 77-acre farm that has been in the same family for multiple generations and is listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places. Pro tip: Grab that wrap, pack a picnic, and enjoy live jazz every Saturday, 1pm to 4pm, through mid December Modeled after an authentic Colonial farm, you’d hardly guess Prescott Farm in Middletown is located on busy West Main Road! But its serene environs, including a duck pond, meticulously tended gardens (overseen by the University of Rhode Island Master Gardeners), historic red clapboard buildings, and the 1812 Robert Sherman
The rustic tasting room at Greenvale Vineyards was once a stable on the 19th-century estate
Windmill will fool you into thinking you’re roaming a pastoral countryside. The farm’s 40 acres (the largest public open space on Aquidneck Island) invite kids to run freely, while monthly “Second Sunday” events for adults allow the opportunity to learn about the history and horticulture of the farm. Photo opp: If you’re looking for a charming Christmas card photo backdrop, the bright red cottages here and windmill are picture perfect. Boyd’s Mill, also known as Boyd’s Wind Grist Mill or Boyd’s Eight-Vane Wind Grist Mill (depends which historian you ask), is the only eight-vane smock mill ever built and operated in New England and one of the very few remaining in the US. Established in 1810, it was one of more than 20 known
wind grist mills across Aquidneck Island that harnessed wind power to grind wheat, corn, and other crops, mostly used for livestock feed. Fun fact: Its oak timbers were cut in Wickford Village and floated across Narragansett Bay to Portsmouth, while other timbers were repurposed from a wrecked schooner. According to the Middletown Historical Society, grain from almost every Aquidneck Island farm passed through the mill from 1840 to 1884. Even though access inside the mill is limited to a seasonal schedule, there are informational signs on site, mill stones, and more. On the same campus you’ll find Paradise School, a one-room schoolhouse house built in 1875. With a bell tower, small brick chimney, original school bell, original blackboards, and period-accurate original yellow exterior punctuated with brown trim and green doors, it’s easy to imagine the children of yesteryear coming to this little place for reading, writing, and arithmetic.

Mad About Plaid Beyond flannel ways to bring the iconic checks into your life
If a season could have a signature pattern, plaid (proper name: tartan) would be autumn’s. While we may think of hipsters and big brands sporting patterns of interlocking stripes – lumberjack style and Burberry, anyone? – plaid actually originated in Scotland as a way to identify one’s region or clan. Today, whether it’s a preppy kilt, punk flannel tied around the waist, or underneath a vest for an outdoorsy look, plaid is loaded with character. Infuse your surroundings with some campfire-meets-classic clever accessories and home goods available from shops around the state.

Spectacular views and local art make this Tiverton home an all-season stunner
Heather Campbell has had ties to Rhode Island her entire life. Her parents were both born in Newport and met there after being introduced on visits home. She spent many summers here growing up, later attended URI, then graduated in 1976 and never left. “I love so much about Rhode Island; its history being the 13th state to join the Union – and all that to the present, the coastline and the waters, charming towns, the arts, the restaurants, Federal Hill, local farm stands, local oyster farms, just to name a few.” For over a decade, Heather has called a

a 55-and-over waterfront community. Heather was drawn to the property instantly by its open floor plan, vaulted ceilings, and 180-degree views of the Sakonnet River and Mount Hope Bridge. “It’s always fun to entertain family and friends over the Fourth of July weekend. When the weather is clear we have seen 14 different fireworks displays from as far as Quonset, Newport, Providence!” Heather adds, “The gas fireplace makes it so

cozy on snowy wintery days. It’s such a great place to watch the snow fall.” Describing her decorating style as traditional, Heather notes that when she lived in Providence her decor was formal while in Tiverton it’s much more relaxed. “I wanted to create a home that has a feeling of warmth. I used primarily greens, aubergine, taupe, and ivory with white on trim and moldings,” she says. “To give a backdrop color on the walls that would enhance my artwork, I had a friend’s husband, who is a consummate cabinet maker, create an intricately detailed fireplace mantle with paneling and molding all in white in the living room. The shelves on either
side have a textured grasscloth, lighting, and thick glass shelves that look as if they are floating. He also built beautiful cabinets and drawers that flow with the space.” One of the things in the home that makes Heather most happy is the kitchen window view overlooking the water. “There are bar stools and counter space for guests to relax and enjoy while I am preparing,” she says. “I also love the upstairs area outside the master bedroom suite that I call ‘the loft’ – it’s an area where I can work privately at my desk, gaze out at the water, needlepoint, read, or have friends in for a movie or a New England Patriots game!”
Tiverton Four Corners “The Cottage has beautiful home furnishings and the art galleries around the corner are full of local works. After shopping either pick up lunch at Provender or a cone of ginger ice cream at Gray’s. There’s also P.D. Humphrey’s hardware and Leo’s Greenhouse. Garden Party “Peckham Farm and Chaves [Middletown], and The Farmer’s Daughter [South Kingstown] are favorites – each offering something special and a wealth of knowledge and information shared.” Statewide Faves “My all-time favorite hardware store is Adler’s on Wickenden. They have an amazing design department and are incredibly helpful. Also, The Drapery House on Mineral Spring in North Providence, and Weatherly Tile & Stone in Portsmouth.”

Floral Manager at Weatherlow Florals Now that I’ve been farming for so many years, my personal style and work style are one in the same. I’d describe it as classic and practical with preppy roots. I gravitate towards high-waisted pants or shorts, shirtdresses, oxford shirts, wool sweaters, and rubber boots. I love my shirt tucked in or some sort of definition of my waist, which makes me feel more put-together and comfortable. I gravitate towards natural materials like cotton and wool with plenty of color and fun prints. A day that I forget to put on my pearl earrings is an off day. I wear rubber boots almost every day and polarized sunglasses are a must. And, my little leather holster for my clippers is always on my waist. I’m likely to wear a dress when not working and can throw a sweater over it, add boots, and step back to work in a flash. We are experimenting all the time with what grows well in our little corner of the world. A crop we grow one year won’t be exactly the same the next year, so it’s constant change and trialing, but I adore that. This time of year, we are busy with filling wholesale orders and design work, plus getting ready for next spring. Look for our Thanksgiving Centerpiece Workshop this month and our third annual Foraged Wreath Workshop in early December. I find that the East Bay/farmcoast has an ideal blend of country and city, and I’m always aiming to take a bit more time year-round – even when it’s hectic with the flowers – to appreciate that. I love visiting Blithewold, Cove Cabin at Mount Hope Farm, and C & R Mercantile, all in Bristol. I’m a huge fan of food. I always make time to visit Bywater in Warren and The Red Dory in Tiverton.

Pumpkin Spice and Everything Nice Everyone’s favorite squash finds its way into three inventive Rhode Island beers
Like football and fleece, pumpkin beer is an autumnal rite. A handful of national breweries dominate the market, and most people splurge on, say, the Pumking Imperial Ale from Southern Tier. But before you grab that pricey four-pack, consider one of Rhode Island’s masterful pumpkin-flavored brews. With their imaginative ingredients and clever names, these beers riff on the traditional flavors – and offer a crisp new experience.

Burritos in the Square
If you’re a human being who truly enjoys Mexican food, you know that satisfying your craving is not as simple as finding a Mexican restaurant you enjoy. Are you looking for a burrito on the go? You can order at the counter at Poco Loco in Cranston and eat on the way to the movies. Are you looking for some high-quality but casual dining? You can grab a cold one with a couple shrimp diablo tacos at Xaco Taco in Providence. Planning on celebrating a special occasion and perhaps wowing a fellow food-lover? Head over to Chilango’s in Providence to grab the chile relleno en nogada. There’s a vast diversity in social situations that call upon a variety of different Mexican dishes and eateries. One of my current priorities is finding a quick burrito in the East Bay. Ever since Bebop Burrito (right off Main Street in Warren) closed, I’ve been on the hunt. I would like to note, Bebop Burrito was replaced by the excellent Eli’s Kitchen – but still, a quick local burrito eludes my greasy fingers. So, when I heard that there was a new burrito place opening up in Riverside, I was thrilled.
Union Burrito sits in Riverside Square, right near Borealis Coffee Company. The folks behind Union Burrito are currently working on a brick-and-mortar location (also in the Square) but for now, Union Burrito exists solely as a semi-permanent food truck, sitting on the grass right next to the building that houses Proud Mary’s Donuts. My first trip to Union Burrito was a serene summer night. Union Burrito smartly sits along the East Bay bike path – providing the possibility of a perfect, portable snack of meat and carbs for the strolling passersby as they continue their trek (and maybe an overly confident bicyclist or two). I had walked over with a few friends from a house in Riverside, and was excited at the prospect of a Mexican food hub nearby. From the standpoint of a casual food truck, Union Burrito has played its cards right. It sits off of the street in the grass, with a plethora of picnic tables less than ten feet away. The dozens of string lights that link the truck to the building instantly give you the feeling of a
breezy summer evening. One side of the truck faces the street, the other faces the bike path, and all is surrounded by lush foliage. It’s relaxed, and it feels like a place where you can just hang. I walked up to the truck and chose UB’s larger burrito – the 15oz Grande Burrito ($9). This was the first of several visits to Union Burrito. Over the past few weeks I’ve tried their burritos, their quesadillas, their burrito bowls, their churros, and their nachos. I can comfortably say that the biggest positive at UB is their meat. Beef, chicken, and pork are the normal options at a burrito bar and UB does not stray from that formula. Throughout the many dishes I tried at Union Burrito, the constant that remained was that they are going for flavor when it comes to carne. I was pleased with the amount of nachos that come with their Loaded Nachos ($10). The Churros ($5) were of the “less-sugarand-more-cinnamon” variety, which may be

A Big Hit La Piñata brings flavor and fun to Warren
“This is not TexMex,” Diego Contreras, one of the owners of La Piñata in Warren, says. “We want to make our food the most Mexican it can be.” Diego, his brother Luis Contreras, and his cousin Paul Covarrubias have brought the flavors from their childhood in Guadalajara to Rhode Island in a literal way: ingredients for their sauces, specialty dishes, and drinks come straight from Mexico and the southwest. Take, for instance, the Classic Margarita. They use Exotico Blanco, a tequila handcrafted in Jalisco, Mexico, along with a margarita mix they make fresh every day with lemons, oranges, limes, and citrus peel. To sweeten, they use agave nectar instead of simple syrup. Even non-margarita drinkers (if such people exist) would find this drink exquisite. As a garnish, the glass is rimmed with both kosher salt and a house-made spice mixture: chile peppers, salt, and dehydrated lime juice – a tangy, smoky, and delicious combination – and only $5 on Margarita Mondays. The creativity doesn’t end with bar drinks: all of their food, from the homemade chips

and queso – a blend of five cheeses boiled for extra creamy consistency – to their signature dishes are made from scratch. Maria Celina Covarrubias, Paul’s mother, is the executive chef. According to Diego, “She came all the way from Mexico to cook and teach – nobody messes around in the kitchen.” You can find La Piñata on the corner of Main and Croade Streets, where locals may recognize the colorful patio and vibrantly painted walls of Aruba Steve’s. The decorations, however, will transport visitors to the heart of Mexico: sheets of tissue paper cut into elaborate designs and painted by hand, called papel picado, are strung from the ceiling; a plethora of piñatas (very apropos) hang from wooden beams; Day of the Dead renditions, in the form of tiles and paintings, are on every wall; and enlarged Lotería cards, aka “Mexican Bingo,” fit perfectly into the wood paneling of the bar. “We wanted to create a fiesta, an atmosphere where everyone feels welcome,” Diego says, and this restaurant is certain to become the life of the party.

On October 8 and 9, Food Network’s Restaurant Impossible is coming to Rhode Island to update Perella’s Ristorante, an Italian culinary institution that has attracted diners to Warren since 1995. The restaurant will receive a $10,000 renovation along with an appearance on the show. The competition around Warren has become more fierce over the past few decades. Perella’s was the original location of the Old Venice. At the time, there were around 10 restaurants in Warren, now there are nearly forty. The renovation will allow the institution to compete, providing customers with a fresh experience. Restaurant Impossible reached out to Louie Perella because they were intrigued by the culinary prowess of his son. “He’s worked in New York City and Australia, and for four different James Beard Award-winning chefs in the short period...He and his wife were planning to take over the restaurant, and he left [Perella’s], because it wasn’t working out.” In search of a salary, benefits, and ample time with family Louie’s son pursued other corporate culinary avenues. “So [Restaurant Impossible] reached out, they want to upgrade the place, change it around, and try to get him back.” A solid financial investment to update Perella’s Ristorante is a great thing for the Perellas, but the renovation is bittersweet. “I’m trying to look at it as a positive experience...everything that I’ve worked 25 years for is going to change.” With the news of the Food Network renovating Perella’s came a monstrous flood of volunteers and support from the community. Louie was floored by the reaction. “The overwhelming response has been emotional. People have reached out and wanted to help - people you don’t even think of, people who come here, who know the place, and know what we’ve done…” growing emotional he quietly adds, “...it’s really been heartwarming.” After the Restaurant Impossible filming, Perella’s Ristorante will re-open to the public on Thursday, October 10.

Suppose you’re throwing a small party. Friends will come over, and they’ll be hungry. You want to present a charcuterie board with a sophisticated range of cheeses. But you don’t know much about cheese, and you need to consult an expert. So – for the past 15 years – you’ve been able to visit Milk & Honey, the specialty cheese shop in Tiverton Four Corners. Last February, Milk & Honey had to seek a new storefront. The owner, Sherry Callaghan, would have preferred to stay in the original location, but she saw the move as an opportunity to expand.

“We looked for a place that we hoped would have more year-round business,” says Sherry. “It’s been somewhat of a challenge. Moving a business that’s been in one location for so many years is always difficult. But it’s not impossible.” Since February, Milk & Honey has settled into a new venue in Portsmouth, where Sherry grew up. She describes the original Milk & Honey as a “garage-meetsbarn”; it stood separately from any other commercial structure. In contrast, their new home is intimately connected to other businesses, lending a more neighborly

environment. The building is centuries old; Sherry has heard that the Milk & Honey sink, with its antique hand pump, is the oldest in Portsmouth. “It’s a little bit smaller,” says Sherry. “But it’s still very rustic in feeling.” Sherry isn’t the original Milk & Honey owner, but she has become an impressive local entrepreneur. For 16 years, she lived in New York City, where she owned an unrelated business. In 2007, Sherry and her husband purchased Bellevue Wine and Spirits in Newport, just weeks before she gave birth to their daughter. They purchased Milk & Honey in 2014, then Aquidneck Meats a couple of years later. Milk & Honey has many regional ties, selling local honey, yogurt, and Newport Creamery products. The shelves are stocked with Effie’s biscuits, made in Massachusetts. Many of the cheeses are produced in New England, but goods are sourced from all over the map. The store coordinates regularly with Bellevue, pairing hard-to-find cheeses with equally fine wines. Not everyone is versed in the craft of cheesemaking, of course, nor do all visitors know what they like. Some swear off gouda, not knowing how various gouda can be. Others love Swiss, unaware that Swiss can be made without holes. One of the few consistencies is an aversion to chevre; if people claim not to like goat cheese, says Sherry, they can taste the slightest hint. “My big question is always, ‘What don’t you like?’” says Nina Pease, who has managed Milk & Honey for years. “Because usually that’s the best way to navigate it. If you ask them what they like, they’ll say, ‘I like everything.’”
