Beautiful floral areas of the WoW Garden. (Courtesy photo)

Celebrate the Mountain Garden Club with “Art in Bloom!”

By Sarah Wright

If you’ve ever been driving through Conway, New Hampshire and admired the pretty plantings on the traffic islands, or seen bursts of floral landscaping in nearby spots, you may have wondered who was behind this beautification of the Mount Washington Valley area. Well, it’s none other than the incredible Mountain Garden Club! With over 200 volunteers, the club has planted and maintained gardens in many area locations, such as Schouler Park and Connie Davis Watson Park in North Conway; the Freedom Public Library; the Gazebo and Town Offices in Jackson; Will’s Children’s Park and the Veteran’s Memorial in Bartlett and even Storyland.Top of Form The Mountain Garden club was established in 1973, and is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting horticultural education, civic beauti-

fication, community service, conservation, and youth projects and scholarships through volunteerism and friendship in the Mount Washington Valley. Their motto is: “Our Roots Are in the Valley.”

Ellin Booras, Publicity Chair of the club for the past two years, believes that “sometimes doing little things can bring about as much joy as the big things.” Her favorite part of the Mountain Garden Club is all the beautification sites around the Valley area, and the recognition of local pride and responsibility to give back to the community. In addition to working with local nursing homes through their Garden Therapy program and elementary schools with an environmental poster contest, a large part of the club is focused on support of area youth through • Art in Bloom Continued on page 10

Page 10 | ALONG ROUTE 16 | June 2019 • Art in Bloom Continued from page 5 scholarships. Money is raised and given to young people who wish to further their education by pursuing jobs that will promote and preserve the environment. Areas of study include subjects such as horticulture, forestry, environmental technology, and agribusiness.

(For the academic year of 20182019, the Mountain Garden Club offered one-year scholarships for up to $2,000 each, available to high school graduates and post-secondary students who reside in Mount Washington Valley.) The scholarship program was named in memory of Alice T. Madden, a lifetime member, who was dedicated to assisting local youth in pursuing higher education

in any of the “green” educational disciplines.

It is this program that Ellin is most proud of, and says, “The amount of people who volunteer their time to help kids in the Mount Washington Valley is amazing!” Members of the club come from all over the area, including the local towns of Albany, Bartlett, Eaton, Effingham, Conway, Madison, Kearsarge, Intervale, Freedom, Jackson, and Glen, and even some small towns across the border in Maine.

Other projects the Mountain Garden Club has worked on include creating holiday wreaths for the public buildings in the area, and environmental projects like designing a rain garden for Children Unlimited, restoring the landscape of the historic Mineral Springs at Kennett High School, completing

son Public Library, Jackson Historical Society & Museum, the Whitney Community Center, and the Riverwood Inn, among others.

If you’d like to become a member of the Mountain Garden Club, membership is open to the public as well as monthly meetings, which are held most often at the North Conway Community Center in Norcross Circle. The business part of the meetings is followed by a presentation and refreshments.

Past presentations focused on planting perennials, how to plant in unhospitable soil, how plants influence our culture and diets, and a very interesting talk about what we can tell about the state’s history from rock walls.

Ellin is excited for what’s ahead.

“This was a great year for new members,” she says, “and the club is great for people looking for friendship or who have the desire to preserve the Mount Washington Valley area through beautification projects.”

For more information regarding the Mountain Garden Club, its programs, and activities, visit www.mountaingardenclub.org or send an email to info@ mountaingardenclub.org. A schedule of meetings and events can also be found on the website, as well as scholarship application information, and gardening tips.

an outdoor reading room area at the North Conway Library, landscaping the grounds surrounding the Mother Seton House, and planting a garden at the memorial to the early residents of Conway at the Conway Police Office and Courthouse.

But it doesn’t stop there. The club is now in its 10th year volunteering at the Mount Washington Valley Habitat for Humanity, landscaping the new homes, and planting oak and red maple trees along Robert Morrell Drive. This is certainly a busy group that gives back to the community in multiple ways.

Also important is their contribution to cancer awareness. The current recipient of the proceeds from various sales held throughout the year is Jen’s Friends, whose mission is to help Mount Washington Valley cancer patients and their families.

While the Mountain Garden Club has had a busy schedule all year, including its very successful Winter Boutique, and spring plant sale, you won’t want to miss the club’s largest event of the year, Art in Bloom, organized by Betsy Harding (former Publicity Chair.) It is the club’s “signature event” with a walking tour of displays in Jackson, New Hampshire, taking place on Saturday, June 29 from 10 am to 4 pm. Participants follow a map of 10 locations around Jackson that will each have inspiring displays of artwork combined with complementary floral arrangements, one enhancing the other.

There will be 40 creative pieces in all, located both indoors and outside, with light refreshments available along the way. Maps are provided at all of the locations, which will include the Jack-

Learn about farming at the NH Farm Museum

By Mary MacKenzie Photo courtesy NH Farm Museum The NH Farm Museum in Milton offers an interesting and practical look at the world of New Hampshire’s agricultural and farming past. The original NH Farm Museum was in Kensington, New Hampshire and was founded in 1969. It was created to be a non-profit, educational experience dedicated to help promote, preserve and carry forward the agricultural heritage of New Hampshire, which is a mission that is adhered to up to the present. During the 1970’s the museum was looking for another “home” where it could display all the historical tools it was acquiring, and teach newer generations about the state’s agricultural heritage. During the search, they found the properties which were the Jones Farm and Plummers Homestead in Milton, New Hampshire.

The adjoining properties are located on 50 acres of lush green farmland which date back to the late 18th century and are also on the National Register of Historic Places.

John Hodgkiss, president of the NH Farm Museum, relates the history of the Jones and Plummer farms. It is a love story of the daughter of Levi Jones falling in love with Joseph Plummer.

The couple married, which united both families and farms.

Levi Jones was an astute businessman and a Mason. He found it beneficial to

paint his farmhouse and barn yellow and the trim green, which would indicate to other Masons in the area that his farm, and the tavern within, were owned by a fellow Mason. This simple act seemed to help his business and the community to prosper. When visiting the NH Farm Museum and looking at the barn, you will find a tall parapet at the top of the barn; this was the place where Levi Jones would retreat to read a book or take a rest from the hustle and bustle of his farm or busy tavern.

The final owners of the Jones farm were the two Jones sisters. Since there were no other family members left to take over the farm, these two women decided they didn’t want anyone else living in their home upon their deaths.

Thus, with their passing, the buildings would be destroyed and torn down. The NH Farm Museum wanted to save this historical property, and decided to buy

the property. They ventured to procure an injunction against the destruction of the historical buildings until they could reach a beneficial agreement which would suit both parties. The agreement stated to the affect as follows: as long as “no one stayed, and slept in the buildings, the buildings would remain intact.” This arrangement allowed the NH Farm Museum to purchase the land with the buildings. The buildings are now used to house their collection of antique farming equipment, as well as educate future generations about the state’s rich heritage of farming.

The NH Farm Museum has guided tours, it is open to the public five days a week from mid-June through Labor Day, and also on specific designated weekends. There is an area of the farm that has animals, displays agricultural tools, and promotes workshops, camps, events and programs for the public and

school-age children to enjoy.

Located in the barn among some of the antique farm tools which displays sickles, hammers, and other items, is a long sled built between 1889 and 1890.

This sled is named Uncle Sam and is painted red, white, and blue, and has been rumored to be the longest sled in the world.

In the farmhouse there is an area called the work room that contains a weaving loom. The loom is still used for weaving and to create hand towels. The agricultural area has herbs and flowers as well as farm animals.

The animals include four Icelandic sheep, which are descended from sheep brought by the Vikings to Iceland during the 9th and 10th centuries.

These Icelandic sheep are known to be the oldest breed of domestic sheep in the world. There are dairy goats - Elsa and Olive, a number of different breeds of “free range” chickens, turkeys, three rabbits whose names are Junior, J.J. and Licorice, three Gloucestershire pigs, and four cows that are beef cattle.

The NH Farm Museum takes monetary donations whereby you can “adopt the animals” to help pay for their feed and veterinary needs.

Some of the “hands-on experiences” for school-age children range from churning butter in the kitchen to feed-

Treasure Shop in Wakefield to open for the summer on June 22 The Treasure Shop, located at the Old Town Hall on 2695 Wakefield Road in Wakefield, New Hampshire, will open for the summer on June 22. Open hours for the shop will be Wednesdays and Saturdays from 9 am to 12:30 pm. The popular Treasure Shop is located in the historic village of Wakefield Corner, which is also home to the Wakefield Library, the Wakefield Inn, and the First Congregational Church, United Church of Christ.

The Old Town Hall was built in 1837 and was used as the town hall until 1895 when the current town hall was built. The now vacant Old Town Hall was leased to the Ladies Social Circle (now the Parish Helpers) of the First Congregational Church and it has been leased to them ever since. For many years it was used as a meeting place for the women’s group and for dinners, fairs, and events for the church and the town. When the church burned down as a result of a lightning strike in 1956, it was used for church services while the church was rebuilt.

In 1963, the Parish Helpers began having a Treasure Sale at the Old Town Hall on Wednesday afternoons. Thus, the Treasure Shop came into existence.

It has changed somewhat over the past 50-plus years: clothing and larger items are no longer sold in the shop, but you will find just about everything else from fine china and toys to small appliances and yarn! There’s a large selection of used books, curtains, jewelry, hardware and more.

Keeping Our Lakes Healthy Symposium The Green Mountain Conservation Group (GMCG) invites the public to the conservation center on Wednesday, June 26 from 6 to 8 pm for the free and informative Keeping Our Lakes Healthy Symposium. The event is open to the public and strongly encouraged for lake front homeowners and members of local New Hampshire lake associations. Keynote speakers will include Amanda McQuaid, Public Beach Program Coordinator at the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services; Russ Lanoie, private contractor and Licensed Septic Designer/Installer, and GMCG’s Water Quality Coordinator, Jill Emerson, and Outreach Coordinator, Moselle Spiller.

as well as landscaping techniques that control storm water run-off into water bodies.

Water Quality Coordinator, Jill Emerson, will present on GMCG’s expanded water quality monitoring program, which starting summer 2019, will be monitoring 15 sites around Lake Ossipee and its bays for E. coli and cyanobacteria. Cyanobacteria is monitored by taking integrated samples one to three meters down at either shoreline location and/or the deep spot of each lake, and then visually screened for known types as well as counting of cyanobacteria cells by microscope. E. coli screening is done by taking shoreline samples. This is typically done at popular swimming spots, by taking 100mL of water from knee depths and growing it on an indicator growth medium.

GMCG Outreach Coordinator Moselle Spiller will introduce “Project BMP� and share how you can participate. GMCG has been awarded a

two-year Watershed Assistance grant by the EPA and NH DES to implement structural Best Management Practices (BMPs) on properties around Ossipee Lake and its bays. BMPs protect shared water resources through the reduction of pollutant loads, and storm water run-off using structural designs such as rain gardens, vegetated buffers, swales, retention walls, and retaining basins.

BMPs help to mitigate the amount of phosphorus and nitrogen found in sandy soils that when combined with hot sunny weather, acts as nutrients exacerbating algae blooms and harmful cyanobacteria. A BMP Steering Committee made up of residents from the towns of Effingham, Freedom, and Ossipee will meet every two months to guide the project and ensure a successful outcome. Meetings will include discussions with a hired engineer who will essentially be drafting the BMP designs, doing a group review of BMP designs, having facilitated discussions about water quality on Ossipee Lake and how to get more folks in the lake community on board with BMPs. If you are interested in being on the BMP Steering Committee or just attending one or two meetings write to info@ gmc.org.

The Keeping Our Lakes Healthy Symposium on June 26 from 6 to 8 pm is free and open to the public. Shoreline homeowners and members of local Lake Associations are strongly encouraged to attend. Meet at the Blue Heron House at 236 Huntress Bridge Road,

Advice To The Players’ 20th Anniversary Season Offers a Lot! Advice To The Players, Sandwich’s Shakespeare Company, is celebrating its 20th anniversary season this summer with performances, concerts, readings, and more, including Shakesperience Summer Camp from July 15 to 26. In addition, concerts will entertain and more programs are also planned.

The camp is the highlight of Advice To The Players’ (ATTP) education program each year. With a great lineup of teaching artists, this summer promises to be one of the best yet.

Returning will be teaching artists Pam Schantterly and Lucy Randall-Tapply.

Both have spent many years as actors in ATTP’s company and are also full-time educators. Ellie Bartz and Luke Haskell are trained teaching artists with Shakespeare & Company in Lenox, Massachusetts, and have acted with ATTP in the past year. Lily Kepner is a camp alumna returning for her fourth year to assist with the youngest campers. Aléxei du Perier and Pauline de Gourcuff are joining the company all the way from France, where they have trained and

worked as theatre artists (Pauline is also an ATTP camp alumna).

ATTP’s two-week camps are theatre experiences in which the teaching artists immerse youth, ages 5 to 15, in the art and craft of acting, and the terms and techniques used to create Shakespeare’s plays. These include theatre games, stage combat and clown skills, movement and dance—all of which culminates in a rousing performance of Shakespeare’s work at the end of camp, adapted by ATTP’s teaching artists and campers.

“Camp performance is my favorite day of the year,” shared ATTP Executive Director, Jessie Chapman. “It’s just magical seeing each age group perform their own spin on Shakespeare, and it is always lots of fun!”

For a unique and fun experience for your children this summer, sign them up for summer camp now. There are three available age group options: ages 5 to 7, ages 8 to 11, and ages 12 to 15. Camps run from July 15 to 26, Monday to Friday from 9 am to noon.

He is a bass/baritone singer who recently completed his third year of undergraduate study at Manhattan School of Music, where he is a recipient of the school’s President Award. He has been training his voice under the tutelage of Metropolitan Opera baritone, Mark Oswald, whose voice studio includes Met Opera star Ryan Speedo Green, as well as Broadway celebrities like John Cudia and Peter Lockyer.

Two great Summer Concert Series performances will take place in one week - Natalia Shevchuk & Stephen Poppel on Wednesday, June 26 at 7:30 pm and Hiroya Tsukamoto on Sunday, June 30 at 5:30 pm.

Natalia Shevchuk studied under the guidance of Nina Kharchenko (first teacher), Natalia Vitte, Igor Ryabov, Ada Krivosheina, and Iya Tsarevich at Kyiv State Conservatory named after P.A. Tchaikowsky (Ukraine). She was among the winners of Rachmaninoff’s piano competition in Kyiv in 1993.

Natalia currently works as the organist and choir director at the Calvary United Methodist Church in Latham, NY. She also accompanies at Hawthorne Valley Waldorf School in Harlemville, NY.

The Wolfeboro Area Farmers Market is open every Thursday from 12:30 to 4:30 pm through October 31 at Clark Park, 233 South Main Street, in Wolfeboro, rain or shine. A special market will be held on Wednesday, July 3, as an alternative to holding a market on the Fourth of July holiday.

Founded in 2002, the market has grown every year with the best that local farms and artisanal food producers have to offer. Market items include fresh vegetables, fruits, dairy products, gourmet and wild mushrooms, foraged foods, fresh fish, cut flowers, meats, honey, herbal products, baked goods, vegan ice cream, maple products, dog treats, gluten-free baked goods, local beer and wine, and a variety of prepared foods. Live music is provided by local musicians each week and shaded picnic tables are available.

Wolfeboro Area Farmers Market Board Chair, Megan Young, says, “We’ve got it covered, right here in one place,” she said. “Lots of farmraised meats, as well as beer, wine, fresh breads, sweet treats and so much more.”

The 2019 season features the “Double SNAP” program for food stampre-

cipients, who can use their Electronic Benefits Cards (EBT) at the market.

With the help of individual and business donations, along with support from the market itself, cardholders receive shopping tokens that allow them to spend two dollars for every one dollar withdrawn from their EBT cards.

Through the organization’s fundraising efforts of the past year, the market is able to double benefits up to a total of $80.00. More than $3,800 has been raised to make this important community program available, with an overall goal of raising $10,000. The board invites tax-deductible contributions from the community to continue support of the program.

The Wolfeboro Area Farmers Market, a non-profit member organization, is governed by an all-volunteer board of directors. It is a 501 C(3) organizations and tax-deductible donations are welcome.

Regular updates and news items are posted on Facebook and the organization’s website. Find information at www.WolfeboroAreaFarmersMarket.com or at www.facebook.com/ wolfeboroareafarmersmarket.

Tell Us Your Tamworth Family Story “Tamworth Families and the Civil War” will be the main focus of the Tamworth History Center’s (THC) summer and fall activities. Running through Columbus Day, THC will be building an exhibit at its Center and holding events around the topic.

All Tamworth residents, and others who may be interested, are invited to help. Do you and your family have photos, belongings, or stories passed down to you, relating to a Tamworth

ancestor who served in the Civil War, or to life in Tamworth in the 1860s?

The History Center wants to tell the stories of Tamworth veterans’ descendants/families who still live here.

Questions to be answered include: Did your ancestor return home after the war? Did he move West, with or without family members? How else did his experience affect the family? Did your family farm here languish, or grow?

Did your forbears start new ventures

further West? If the answer is yes to any of the above questions, THC Curator Bob McLean, Becca Boyden, Chris Clyne and Michelle Longley want to hear from you.

A longtime student of the Civil War, Bob is responsible for ‘Tamworth in the Civil War’, a compilation of facts about the men who enlisted in the Union Army from Tamworth (available in both town libraries.) Becca specializes in curating family genealogies and

stories. Michelle is a diligent researcher and exhibit designer. Also helping with the project is Jim Sutherland of Goffstown, a Hidden family descendant and Civil War specialist.

For information, please contact tamworthhistorical@gmail.com. Call Bob McLean at 603-323-7842 or Michelle Longley at 603-273-6409 or email mmlongley81@gmail.com.
