Farm to School Grants Kick Off
By Trevor Lowell, VT Agency
of Agriculture, Food & Markets
October is National Farm to
School Month and one of the
ways we celebrate here at the
Vermont Agency of Agriculture,
Food & Markets is with
the launch of our annual Farm
to School and Early Childhood
(FTSEC) grants. The FTSEC
grant program has been around
since 2007 and has helped grow
farm to school and farm to
early childhood into a thriving
Central Vermont Council on Aging and the American
Society on Aging Joins Allies Across the Globe in
Celebration of Ageism Awareness Day
Central Vermont Council on Aging
(CVCOA) and the American Society on
Aging will celebrate Ageism Awareness Day
on Oct. 7, 2022. Modeled after the United
Nation’s International Day of Older Persons
(Oct. 1), Ageism Awareness Day provides an
opportunity to draw attention to the existence
and impact of ageism in our society.
“Aging is not a problem,” says ASA
President/CEO Peter Kaldes, “ageism is. And
because of this, we are determined to explore
cultural views on aging and portrayals of
aging at the individual, community and
national levels. We want to reframe how we
talk about aging as the natural process of life,
shift representations of aging often portrayed
in the media as being a period of decline and
promote representation of older adults in the
arts as the experienced and unique individuals
they are, engaged with the well-being of their
families, communities, and the world.”
Ageism can affect Vermonters in a variety
of ways, from equitable access to healthcare
and transportation, to planning welcoming
communities for older adults to age in place.
“Central Vermont Council on Aging continues
to raise awareness about ageism as an
important issue for individuals, organizations,
and businesses,” says Luke Rackers, Director
of Development and Communications at
CVCOA. “As the population in Vermont continues
grow older, we need to find new ways
of addressing ageism so that we can create
vibrant, welcoming, and inclusive spaces and
communities for all.”
The most widespread and socially accepted
form of prejudice, ageism is defined by the
World Health Organization as “the stereotypes
(how we think), prejudices (how we
feel) and discrimination (how we act) towards
others or oneself based on age.”
Evidence shows ageism is widespread in
society and can be found everywhere, from
our workplaces and health systems to stereotypes
we see on TV, advertising and in the
media.
Governor Phil Scott Announces Winners of Over $4
Million In Downtown and Village Center Tax Incentives
movement throughout the state.
In the fifteen-year history of the program,
thousands of children, teachers, students and
farmers have benefited, and Vermont has established
itself as a national leader in farm
to school.
This year, we’re more excited than ever to
kick off a new round of funding. In a huge
win for farm to school, the governor and
legislature have authorized a significant increase
in the program’s budget. This means
we’ll be able to help even more schools,
early childhood education providers and
non-profits develop and enhance farm to
school and farm to early childhood programs
throughout the state.
The first of three grant opportunities, the
Farm to School and Early Childhood Grant,
opens for applications on Monday October
3rd, with a deadline to apply of November
3rd. This grant provides financial and technical
assistance to schools and early childhood
education providers to help develop
or grow their farm to school programs. The
second grant, the Community Supported
Agriculture Grant, will open in early January
of 2023. This grant helps subsidize the
cost of CSA or farm share subscriptions for
early childhood education providers and afterschool
programs looking to serve more
local food in their operations. And finally,
the Farm to School Vision Grant will open
for applications in early February of 2023.
This grant funds innovative farm to school
projects led by schools, early childhood education
providers and/or non-profits.
Visit our website for more information
about any of these funding opportunities, or
reach out to program manager Gina Clithero,
gina.clithero@vermont.gov, with any
questions.

A few facts about ageism, which affects
people of any age and harms all:
There are many forms of ageism, including
internalized, cultural, implicit and benevolent.
• Ageism decreases quality of life and can
shorten lifespan by 7.5 years.
• Although it is universal, people do not
always take ageism as seriously as they do
other forms of inequity.
• Ageism intersects with, and exacerbates, all
other discriminatory “isms.”
• In media, underrepresented older adults
most often reflect negative stereotypes.
• According to the United Nations, on a
global scale, one in two people are ageist.
“The American Society on Aging is reaching
out to our members and allies,” adds
Kaldes, “to raise awareness about ageism and
to put an end to what aging expert Ashton
Applewhite describes as a ‘prejudice against
our future self.’”
About the American Society on Aging
The American Society on Aging unites,
empowers and champions everyone striving
to improve aging. Since 1954, ASA has
developed and led the largest, most diverse
community of professionals working in aging
in America. As a result, ASA has become the
go-to source to cultivate leadership, advance
knowledge and strengthen the skills of our
members and others who work with and on
behalf of older adults. For further information

Governor Phil Scott and the Agency of
Commerce and Community Development
(ACCD) announced over $4 million in funding
supporting a record number of rehabilitation
and revitalization projects throughout
Vermont’s designated downtown and village
centers. These 49 project awards will help
generate over $95 million in building improvements
and public infrastructure around
the state.
“These investments are impactful, supporting
local businesses, creating new housing,
and improving the economic vitality of our
community centers,” said Governor Scott.
“I believe this kind of targeted investment
in our downtowns and village centers, along
with the strategic use of federal relief dollars,
shows what we can do to make Vermont an
even better place to live, work and play.”
“Thanks to the support of the Legislature,
the Downtown Board was thrilled to fund 49

Donated Car Gives Berlin Father a Way Forward
Record-high car prices have
persisted for over a year, leaving
many people unable to afford
safe and reliable vehicles.
Fortunately for a Berlin father,
a donated car is bringing relief
from his family’s transportation
struggles and enabling them to
move forward in life.
Andrew Moore was awarded
a 2007 Hyundai Sonata from
the car-donation nonprofit Good
News Garage. The organization
was founded in Vermont
in 1996 as one of the nation’s
first charitable car donation programs.
Over the last 25 years, it
has helped car donors give over
5,500 vehicles to neighbors in
need, putting them on the road to self-sufficiency.
Upon receiving the car, Moore wrote the
donor of his new car a note saying, “Thank
you so much for your donation to Good News
Garage. It will help me and my family a lot.”
Good News Garage says a national car
shortage is driving up the prices for new and
used cars to record highs. Many low-income
individuals and families are unable to afford
reliable vehicles, restricting their ability to
obtain steady employment, bring their kids
important places, and live self-sufficientl .
The organization also says the need for donated
vehicles is at a critical level. Donations are
down and being far outpaced by the demand
and need for reliable used cars.
“While we can’t solve the car shortage, we
can certainly help some of those who are being
hit the hardest,” said Cash Cranson, director
of operations at Good News Garage.
“However, our ability to help is limited by the
number of car donations we receive. During
this difficult time, choosing to donate your
car is an act of kindness and compassion that
makes a huge, immediate impact.”
Good News Garage awards cars to Vermont
residents through a partnership with
the state’s Reach Up agency. Car recipients
must be Reach Up participants to qualify for
cars. Those interested can find out more about
Reach Up at https://dcf.vermont.gov/benefits

Good News Garage is a member of Ascentria
Care Alliance, one of the largest human
services organizations in New England. With
locations throughout the region, Ascentria is

by empowering people to reach beyond
life’s challenges and thrive. For more

projects in communities large
and small,” said Department
of Housing and Community
Development Commissioner
Josh Hanford. “This year we
awarded a record number of
rehabilitation and revitalization
projects, and I am grateful
to the dedicated
Vermonters working to keep
the heart and soul of their
communities vibrant places
for years to come.”
In 2022, $4.1 million in tax
credits will offset the costs of
major investments in projects
including:
• The redevelopment of the
former U.S. Customs House
and Post Office in St. Albans
into mixed commercial use
and will provide eight new
units of downtown housing;
• The renovation of the 1901
Champlain Theater in
Swanton’s village center into
space for three new commercial
tenants; and
• Adapting the historic Squire
House in Bennington into
three units of transitional
housing for women and children.

Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman
Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) announced that
$1 billion in new funding for the Low Income
Home Energy Assistance Program
(LIHEAP) was included in the Continuing
Resolution.
Leahy said: “No family should have to
choose between ‘heat or eat’ in Vermont or in
any community across the country. The third
hottest summer on record had already put a
strain on LIHEAP funding, so I am glad that
we were able to secure these new resources
before the cold of winter sets in.”
Leahy was the leading advocate for securing
new funding for the popular program in
the continuing resolution, which is estimated
to deliver $5.7 million in support for Vermonters.
More than 6 million low-income
households rely on LIHEAP to defray their
home energy costs, nation-wide.
LIHEAP has proven to be one of the most
effective safety net programs, successfully
leveraging investments from all stakeholders
in keeping families safe and healthy. The
funding arrives ahead of a winter heating season
where inflati n and Russia’s invasion of
Ukraine are expected to further strain families’
pocket books to heat their homes.

the Valley Players Theater, 4254 Main Street
(Rt. 100), Waitsfield. Show days and times are
Fridays & Saturdays at 7 p.m. and Sundays
at 2 p.m. The show will be styled as a 1940’s
live radio broadcast, adapted by Joe Landry,
with an ensemble of six actors bringing to
life more than two dozen characters from the
novel. Sound effects will be created live on
stage with musical accompaniment by Daniel
Bruce, composed by Kevin Connor. The
set will reflect a 1940’s radio studio, and the
Vermont Philharmonic Opens 64th Season
with New World Composers
The Vermont Philharmonic opens its 64th
season with a concert program that features
music by new world composers – though
they may not be familiar names, audiences
will come to love them. Concerts are Saturday
October 15th at 7:30 p.m. at the Highland
Center for the Arts in Greensboro, and Sunday
October 16th at 2:00 p.m. at the Barre
Opera House.
The program opens with Mexican composer
Arturo Márquez’s lively Danzón No. 2,
his interpretation of an elegant Cuban dance,
with its nostalgic melodies, sexy rhythms, and
great expressive freedom.
In a completely different mode, Florence
Price’s Adoration (1951) is calm and serious,
with a lovely melody. Price was African-
American, a graduate of the New England
Conservatory in 1906, underappreciated during
her lifetime and for nearly 70 years after
her death. It was only in 2009 that many of
her over 300 compositions were found in her
abandoned summer home and are starting to
get the attention they deserve.
show will be punctuated by 40’s-era commercials.
The production is directed by Shannon
Sanborn.
Tickets are $18 for evening shows and $14
for matinees and are available in advance
from www.valleyplayers.com, or by reservation
by calling 802-583-1674. For reservations,
payment will be required at the door
(cash or check preferred). At this time, proof
of Covid vaccination and masks are not required;
the Valley Players will continue to follow
recommended Vermont state guidelines
at the time of the show.
Deems Taylor was well known during his
lifetime as the presenter of the New York
Philharmonic’s radio broadcasts and as a music
critic and writer. He was a serious and
skillful composer as evidence by his pleasing
Three Century Suite with five movements including
a Saraband and a Rigadoon.
And finally, Howard Hanson’s Symphony
No. 2 includes lingering romantic melodies,
blazing brass, soaring strings – a rich and satisfying
orchestral experience. Hanson wrote
that he “aimed in this symphony to create a
work that was young in spirit, lyrical and romantic
in temperament, and simple and direct
in expression.”

The Puppet Journey 1982-2022: Vermont Family Network’s Puppets in
Education Program is Celebrating 40 Years
A few big things happened in 1982: The Commodore 64 was
released, prompting Time magazine to name “the computer” as
Person of the Year; the Vietnam Veterans Memorial was dedicated;
and Prince William was born. E.T. was the big movie of
the year and Michael Jackson released Thriller. But the biggest
thing of all to come out of 1982 was Vermont Family Network’s
Puppets in Education.
Puppets in Education (or PiE, as it is often known) started out
with just six puppets, four of whom had disabilities, and had combined
funding from the State Department of Education and the
Parent/Teacher Organization. They focused on Burlington-area
schools and presented skits related to disability awareness and
abuse prevention.
Slowly, word of PiE’s work grew, as did their stable of puppet
characters, skit topics, and staff and volunteers. Prior to the pandemic,
PiE had twenty different skits on offer, including: Autism/
Friend-2-Friend, Blindness, Bullying Prevention, Cultural Diversity,
Cerebral Palsy, Healthy Habits, Friendship, and Feelings. We
have nearly as many puppets as skits, each with their own unique
personality and representing the diversity kids see in their schools
and communities.
Over the decades, PiE has grown from a Burlington-focused
program to one that provides programming across the state of
Vermont, upstate New York, and even into Connecticut and Massachusetts.
In 1989, PiE reached 875 children and adults with its
abuse prevention program. During the 2021-22 school year, we
reached over 7,000 people across two states, and had over 130
performances (virtual and in-person). Over PiE’s 40 years, we’ve
had the honor and pleasure of reaching 300,000 people with nearly
5,000 performances.
There have been so many memorable experiences over the
years. Here are just a few:
“I will never forget the time a student asked (after the depression
skit) if you ever feel like you have a hole here (pointing to her
heart). Also, when they asked Mark [puppet] if he had an atomic
wheelchair—not just battery powered but something more space
connected.” —Mary K. Dennison, former Vermont Family Network
Board Member and PiE Director
“When I talk with people about PiE, I often share the story
about one time when you and the puppets presented the show
about sexual abuse prevention. You had the children draw an outline
of their bodies on a large piece of paper, then you asked them
to color it in. I remember once you said one young girl colored her
groin area in red and that was a red flag that something at home
may not be right, and you contacted the authorities. They did find
she was being sexually abused. That story always struck me as
how powerful the PiE shows are.” — Rich Graham, former Puppets
in Education Board Member
“While working in the public schools several years ago, I had a
second-grade student on the autism spectrum. I decided to contact
Puppets in Education to have them present the “Friend 2 Friend”
program to all the students at that grade level. During the presentation,
students were fully engaged and enjoyed holding the
puppets and making them “talk.” The question-and-answer period
reinforced common language and strategies to use, and allowed
students to share their own experiences. The post survey showed
children remember several strategies for interacting with others in
a more empathetic, supportive way, and teachers were also more
aware of their communications. The family of the student on the
spectrum was especially grateful to have had an opportunity for
their child’s difference to be acknowledged in a positive way.” —
Carol Irish, Educator
“I am proud to have been a part of an organization dedicated
solely to the education and protection of children across all aspects
of their lives. We’re no longer using puppets as another means to
educate a special issue; the issue is children and what they need.
We have established ourselves as a major partner in the care of
Vermont children because we continually ask what children need
and how we can better serve them.” — Josiah Pearsall, former
Puppets in Education Educator
“I am a Vermonter. When I was in elementary school, Puppets
in Education came to my school and performed. I remember they
did a skit about disabilities. I think that what you do is great. Your
lessons are easy to understand, and they are very memorable. The
way that you work with the puppets makes it really easy for kids
and adults to feel okay about opening up. I hope that if I end
up staying in Vermont that I will be able to have you come to
the school that I work at. Your stuff is wonderful.” —2009 UVM
Education Student
“I just want to say that I really enjoyed your puppet show. I
think that the people who watched your show will really think
twice before they hurt someone on the outside or on the inside.
A part that I really liked was Claire telling Eddie how to explain
to Jason that bullying was not funny or OK. And that is when I
think people really started to listen. One more part that I really
liked was when some kids went up and just sort of improvised.
Thank you for coming to our school.” —From the girl in the green
sweatshirt (kid letter, 2005)
Over the last 40 years, we’ve not only had the honor of teaching
children about empathy, respect, and inclusion, we’ve been
able to reach the children of children who saw some of our earliest
shows. And even though we’re taking the time to honor the past
and all the hard work that’s been done, we’re also looking to the
future. We’re constantly asking ourselves, “what do the kids need
right now?” and then striving to provide it.
In this quick-paced, technology-driven, politically divided
world we live in, it seems almost strange that something so simple
as a puppet can still have a tangible impact on the lives of our
children. And yet, we’ve seen firsthand that Puppets in Education
remains a relevant and necessary program in the lives of our
youngest community members.
Here’s to 40 years, and here’s to 40 more.

GMP Nearly Doubling Energy
Storage Through Innovative
Agreements to Boost Savings for
Customers While Transforming Grid
Green Mountain Power (GMP) is adding grid-connected
energy storage in six communities, to further accelerate its
work to cut carbon and costs for customers, while strengthening
the greater grid. GMP is working with battery companies
and local developers to build cost-competitive energy storage
projects in Vermont and purchase battery power to put back on
the grid to save customers money. The storage projects selected
will nearly double the current peak energy savings for GMP
customers, and batteries will be in Georgia, Springfield,
Bethel, Middlebury, Bristol, and Barre.
The new projects are adding 25 MW of energy storage and
will be online in the next two years, joining GMP’s existing
fleet of more than 30 MW of residential and large-scale storage
throughout Vermont. The projects deliver savings for
customers by reducing peak energy costs and carbon emissions
on high energy use days, avoiding the need to buy power
from the regional grid.
“Energy storage is a critical aspect of the important grid
transformation underway in Vermont,” said GMP president
and CEO Mari McClure. “Working in partnership with businesses,
communities, and Vermonters, we are delivering more
savings, more carbon reductions, and stronger local communities.”
Already GMP’s industry-leading battery programs saved
customers $3 million a year for the last several years. These
new batteries are projected to double those savings for customers,
helping save an additional $3 million a year. Storage
through GMP’s programs gives the grid more flexibility
which also adds resilience, strengthens the grid, and helps
enable more local renewables and more clean electrification.
Through an agreement with WEG, an energy storage developer,
GMP added 5MW of battery storage located in Barre last
year. Another battery of 3MW will be added in Bristol next
year through an agreement with Agilitas Energy of
Massachusetts, with the other storage projects coming online
in the next two years.
“It’s so great to work with such a forward-thinking utility
like Green Mountain Power,” said Barrett Bilotta, President of
Agilitas Energy. “By continuing to leverage the benefits of
storage—GMP is doing right by its customers, the grid, and
the energy transition, all at the same time.”
In addition to these grid scale projects, GMP is the first utility
in the country to offer full, regulator-approved home battery
programs to customers. Participants get discounted home
energy storage for seamless backup power during storms, and
they agree to share stored energy with all customers during
energy peaks. GMP’s residential programs include Bring Your
Own Device (BYOD), Enphase, and Powerwall programs and
GMP works with commercial customers on custom battery
solutions for their businesses.
About Green Mountain Power
Green Mountain Power serves approximately 270,000 residential
and business customers in Vermont with electricity
that’s 100% carbon free and 68% renewable, and GMP is
partnering with them to improve lives and transform communities.
GMP is providing solutions to cut carbon and is delivering
electricity that is clean, affordable, and always on. GMP is
the first utility in the world to get a B Corp certification, meeting
rigorous social, environmental, accountability and transparency
standards and committing to use business as a force
for good. In 2022, GMP was named to TIME’s list of the 100
Most Influential Companies. Fast Company named GMP one
of the top five Most Innovative Companies in North America
in 2022. GMP also earned a spot on Fast Company’s Most
Innovative Companies in the World list in the energy sector
four years in a row, and in 2021 the Smart Electric Power
Alliance (SEPA) honored GMP as a nationwide leader in
energy transformation.

Looking for a Little Light
at Alpenglow
This month CVEDC
visited Alpenglow Fitness
on Main Street in Montpelier,
a little studio that has
fought hard to last out the pandemic, thanks to both committed
clients and business owner, Sky Redmond.
Sky’s career took her from Times Argus to Vermont Life to
The Nation before she returned to Vermont and opened Alpenglow
in 2018. Alongside her passion for journalism, Sky
always had a passion for sports and working out, but she had
a particular vision for what she looked for in a fitness studio
Sky hoped her studio would be intentional and welcoming.
She had attended workout classes where she felt intimidated
and like she didn’t belong. But everywhere that she went, she
also took little bits that she did want to incorporate in her studio:
the urban music and high energy from spin classes in New
York City while working at the Nation, and the friendliness
and easy location in her predecessors in the Montpelier space.
It was attending classes in Montpelier that another instructor
first suggested Sky should lead workout classes. She was surprised
by the suggestion and didn’t see herself in the role, but
she came to realize that she wasn’t alone in dreaming of a different
type of workout space.
“I wanted people to experience this studio like getting a big
hug,” Sky told me when we chatted about the studio’s careful
work to build up, many times over and back again, before
and during the Covid-19 pandemic. When I attended a
barre class—and that’s ballet barre, not Barre, Vermont!—I
saw firsthand that Sky had nailed it. The women in the class
I attended were kind and protective. They seemed to have a
variety of athletic inclinations; I thought I spotted a former
ballerina or two in the bunch but also the strong physiques of
those who might be weight lifters. The atmosphere was caring
and kind, and a little bit fragile: this was a community who
really cared about each other and really valued the work of
Alpenglow, service that the pandemic had threatened.
Keeping the special ecosystem of Alpenglow alive during
Covid-19 wasn’t easy. At first the business, not yet two years
old, shut down entirely to comply with regulations. Next, the
assistant manager’s husband engineered plexiglass dividers
to provide group workouts in safety, though the studio could
only operate at 50% capacity. Drops in attendance and teacher
availability caused periods of concern for the business. They
weathered the storm and still offer consideration for the pandemic
including special 1 on 1 cycling classes for those who
are uncomfortable with a group class. Sky has worked hard to
keep Alpenglow open, pursuing community support, getting
the word out about Alpenglow’s barre, cycle, yoga, and combination
classes and fitness retreats for employers and groups.
Sky also received a technical assistance award through the
Community Navigator Pilot Program and partnered with RL
Photo on the gorgeous image you see in this post, to help promote
awareness about Alpenglow for those stuck behind a
screen.
Supporting every loyal community who works out together
is, of course, a great leader, and Alpenglow is fortunate to have
that in Sky. She leads her classes with the nonjudgmental,
positive, encouraging attitude she described wishing for herself.
The hug she wanted to create shows up in her group fi -
ness classes, but the impulse to give that hug comes 100%
from Sky. Without ever coming across as pushy or aggressive,
she is vibrant and bright in a way that helps you relax into your
workout and enjoy it as much as she meant you to. When we
met to chat about Alpenglow, I was struck by the glaze of happiness
on her face—partially due, I think, to her recent wedding
in front of the Eiffel Tower which culminated a bicycle
ride from Amsterdam to Paris! I look forward to many more
visits to Alpenglow and to seeing all the light Sky is able to
bring to her community in the days to come.

VT PoC continued from previous page
VT PoC advocates for, and increases access to, lasting opportunities
for professionals and businesses of color across
Vermont, to ensure the health and prosperity of a thriving
community.
The Vermont Professionals of Color Network is the hub that
connects BIPOC professionals across the state. What began as
a simple idea of creating community amongst BIPOC professionals
in Vermont has turned into an statewide network that
serves BIPOC at all levels, from students entering the workforce
to experienced professionals and executives. With membership
across Vermont, the goal of VT POC remains consistent:
to build from within.

October Book Discussion
Jeudevine Library’s October Book Discussion is a short but
intriguing book by Sebastian Junger called Freedom. Join us
for coffee, muffins and a book on Monday, Oct. 24 at 9 am at
the library. This book is a profound rumination on the concept
of freedom.
Throughout history, humans have been driven by the quest
for two cherished ideals: community and freedom. The two
don’t coexist easily. We value individuality and self-reliance,
yet are utterly dependent on community for our most basic
needs. In this intricately crafted and thought-provoking book,
Sebastian Junger examines the tension that lies at the heart of
what it means to be human as he and some friends take a long
hike along the 400-mile journey walking along the railroad
tracks from Washington to Pennsylvania accompanied by two
Afghan War vets, a conflict photographer, and a dog.
Copies of the book are available to check out at the library
front desk. For information call 472-5948.

A 1796 penny tax notice signed by Aaron Partridge, brother of Norwich University founder Alden Partridge,
David Denny whose circa 1793 house is the third oldest in Northfield and Col. Ezekiel Robinson
elected selectman at the first Northfield town meeting.
What a difference twenty years can make.
What about the last twenty years of your life
… think about your life since Y2K. Now consider
the notice in the 1796, March 21 Rutland
Herald announcing that the State of Vermont
Legislature met in Windsor in October
of 1795 and “granted a tax of one penny on
each acre of land in the township of Northfield,
in the county of Orange, and the State
of Vermont … for the purpose of making
and repairing roads, and building bridges ...”
The notice is signed by the superintendents
of the funds: Aaron Partridge, David Denny
and Ezekiel Robinson. All familiar names to
people in Northfield. So, what had happened
in the twenty years prior to this new tax of
one penny?
Since the early settlers of New York and
New Hampshire in the 1620’s, the boundaries
between the two were not clearly defined
and often in dispute. In 1764 the British Privy
Council made a vague territorial claim decision
which put the territory, long known as the
“New Hampshire Grants” and inhabitants of
the region in a state of political ambiguity. Ira
Allen, Seth Warner and their Green Mountain
militia asked for support from the Continental
Congress from the “New Hampshire Grants”
but were ultimately granted support from
New York’s revolutionary Congress in July
of 1775. On June 4, 1777, seventy-two delegates
representing forty eight towns gathered
in Windsor; in addition to proposing a “Declaration
of Rights” and “Frame of Government”
the convention adopted “Vermont” as the
name of the new republic. General George
Washington and the victorious Continental
Army returned victoriously to New York after
the evacuation of the British in November of
1783. Eight years later Vermont was granted

statehood on March 4, 1791.
While the United States of America was becoming
a country and Vermont was becoming
a state, Northfield was being settled and becoming
a township. On November 11, 1783
rootsweb.com reports “The first permanent
settlement was made by Amos and Ezekiel
Robinson and Stanton Richardson in May,
1785 … The first town meeting was convened
at the house of Dr. Nathaniel Robinson,
March 25, 1794, by the order of Cornelius
Lynde, Esq., of Williamstown. At said meeting
the following list of officers was elected:
Cornelius Lynde, moderator; Nathaniel Robinson,
town clerk; Stanton Richardson, Amos
Robinson, Ezekiel Robinson, listers; David
Denny, collector of taxes; Aquillo Jones, Samuel
Richardson, highway surveyors.” Within
eighteen months the notice of one penny tax
per acre is approved and notice given.
One penny seems hardly worth the effort
of collection until we consider that during the
late 1700’s, “the most widely used mediums
of exchange in the New England colonies
were beaver skins and ‘country pay,’ which
means, substantially, agriculture products,
corn chiefl .” Mr. Marston Cabot was paid
in shillings, ‘country pay’ of West India and
New England Rums for his initial survey
of Northfield in 1794. It is worth a Google
search of “history colonial wages United
States department of labor” to understand the
complexity of currency, value of items and labor
and exchange rates during the late 1700’s
to gain a sense of what “one penny on each
acre” meant in 1796.

Betty Bell
It is with great sadness we share with you
that Betty Bell passed away on September
23, 2022, at the young age of 90.
Betty was born on May 13, 1932, in
Montpelier, VT to Clyde and Nettie
(Getchel) Laird. She attended Montpelier
schools. Betty was married to Wendell
Bell on February 21, 1948 and enjoyed
their time together until he passed away
in 1983.
Some folks may remember her from
the counter at JJ Newberry’s where she worked for 13 years.
She then worked for a short time at Norma’s Donut shop in
Montpelier and then at Berlin Convalescent for 20 years before
she retired. After she retired, she became a senior companion
for the Barre Council on Aging where she received
the Governor’s Award for Outstanding Community Service.
Betty was a past President of the Women’s Auxiliary at the
American Legion in Barre, she was also a Senior Regent of
the Women of the Moose Lodge when it was located in Barre.
Betty had a lifelong love of music and could strum a guitar
and sing with anyone who wanted to. In her younger years she
and Wendall very much enjoyed Saturday night dances at the
Moose Lodge. She always enjoyed going to the beach Sunday
afternoons at Groton and just any family gatherings. But most
of all, Betty just liked to talk and visit with people. She was
always very interested in knowing who was related to whom
and if she could make a connection with her own relatives.
Betty was a strong willed and very independent woman and
these final years as a shut-in, due to Covid and her own health,
were very difficult.
Betty is survived by her three children, Wendy Gifford
(Lee), Richard W. Bell, and Jane Murtagh. The grandmother
of 10, the great-grandmother of 29 and the great-great grandmother
of 11. She is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews
and cousins.
She was predeceased by her husband Wendell Bell; her
daughter Bonnie Boutin and her husband Gerard Boutin; her
daughter in-law Cheryl Bell, and her son in-law Stephen Murtagh;
her brothers Raymond, Harold, Kenneth; sisters Elva,
Dorothy, Lorraine, Phyllis and Rachel.
Calling hours were held at Guare & Sons Funeral Home
on School St. in Montpelier on Thursday, September 29 from
6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. as well as the funeral service on Friday,
September 30 at 11:00 a.m.
A special thank you to all her neighbors and friends at North
Barre Manor and beyond for their caring help and support for
Betty.
Arrangements are in the care of Guare & Sons Funeral Home.

Ella Mae Long Tewksbury
RANDOLPH - Ella Mae Long Tewksbury,
102, died peacefully on September
18 at Menig Nursing Home, her family by
her side.
She was born on August 18, 1920 in
Beverly, MA. Shortly thereafter, her parents,
Milford and Edna Long, returned to
their home in Waitsfield, VT.
In 1939, after graduating from Waitsfield
High School, she came to Randolph
for nursing training at Gifford School of
Nursing. In Randolph, Ella met and married Ellsworth Tewksbury.
With the beginning of World War II, Ellsworth entered
the service and was a medic at the Army Air Force Base in
Kingman, AZ. Ella continued her schooling and completed her
Registered Nurse training in 1942. She joined her husband in
Kingman where they lived for the duration of the war.
Returning to Randolph in 1946, Ella and Ellsworth soon
moved to their Terrace Street home where they eventually
raised a family of four sons and a daughter. They arranged
their work so that someone was always home with the children.
Ella frequently worked the night shift at Gifford until becoming
the evening supervisor at Tranquility Nursing Home. Later
in life, she was a nurse for Tewksbury Ambulance Service and
for the Steven Patrick Christian Manor, a residential school for
children and youth with disabilities established by Ellsworth
and Ella.
In 1960, Ella and Ellsworth started Metro Answering Services
at their home with a tabletop of dial-up phones, one for
each business. Eventually, as Metro expanded, these phones
were replaced by a plug-in switchboard, now a featured exhibit
at the Randolph Historical Society. In 1962, Metro started
dispatching for the Randolph Village Fire Department and in
1983 added the fire departments of Randolph Center, East
Randolph, and Brookfield. Ella had over 30 accounts with
local professionals and businesses and also monitored alarm
systems for area banks and companies.
When Ellsworth died in 1979, Ella decided that instead
of returning to nursing she would continue with Metro. She
promised herself that she would “not feel tied down” and made
a list of all the advantages to running this 24-hour answering
service at home. The perks ranged from being her own boss
to having plenty of time to read, garden, do craft projects, and
carry out a personal “ministry” of cooking meals for others in
need. The chocolate cream pies she made for fund raisers were
sold out before they were delivered. She hosted church meetings
at her home and often friends and family would gather
there for other events. Ella professionally operated Metro for
42 years and retired in 2002 at the age of 82.
After retirement, Ella traveled frequently with her sister,
Elizabeth Munn, and they had many great adventures together.
She spent a month traveling in Thailand with her son and
daughter-in-law.
In 2013, Ella moved to the Joslyn House where she enjoyed
living independently in a warm, social community so
ably managed by Arlene, Allen and Becky Wright. In 2019,
needing more assistance, Ella moved to Menig Nursing Home
where she received exceptional care from a warm, considerate
and professional staff. She always said the meals in the two
homes were excellent and her favorite recreation in both was
bingo.
Above all else, she cherished her family and will be most
remembered for her kindness, positive attitude, and love. She
was Oma to her grandchildren who treasure their memories of
playing and sometimes staying with her at her Terrace Street
home.
For years, Ella was an active member in the Vermont Tres
Dias community and the Green Mountain Gospel chapel. A
Life Member of the Order of the Eastern Star, she was honored
for her 80 years of membership in 2018. She raised funds
for the Randolph Senior Center with what became known as
the Ella Tewksbury Walk for Healthy Aging.
Ella was predeceased by her husband, Ellsworth. She is
survived by five children: Martin Tewksbury and wife Bonnie
Kawecki of Catonsville, MD., John Tewksbury and wife
Deborah of Randolph, James Tewksbury and wife Sheryl of
Randolph, Marla Edson and husband Russell of Worcester,
and Steven Patrick Tewksbury of New Lexington, OH; seven
grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren.
A celebration of life was held at Green Mountain Gospel
Chapel in Randolph on Saturday, October 1. Private Funeral
and Burial Services took place at Day Funeral Home
and Pleasant View Cemetery with Rev. Ronald E. Rilling on
Sunday, October 2 and Monday, October 3. Donations can be
made in Ella’s memory to Joslyn House or Menig Nursing
Home.

JOAN ROSE BLACK — August
24, 1931 – September 17, 2022. After
graduating from Mary Louise Academy in 1949,
Joan commuted to Hofstra University in New
York City. During that time a neighbor boy with
a promising pharmaceutical career proposed to
her. Much to her father’s dismay, Joan quit
school and joined The United States Navy as a WAVE (Women
Accepted into Volunteer Service) in 1951, training and
working as a weather forecaster. There she met her future husband,
James Andrew Black at the training facility in Lakewood,
New Jersey. She married in 1951 and was stationed in
Hutchinson, Kansas until her discharge. The eldest of three
children, born to James Joseph Lynch and Helen Evans Lynch
in Brooklyn, Joan left us peacefully in her sleep at age 91. She
embraced life and lived by her motto to “enjoy one good time
at a time.” We’ll miss her infectious laugh and the sense that
nothing was more important to her in the moment than her
time with you. Joan is survived by her children, grandchildren
and extended family.
LYLE JAMES FARNHAM, 39, of Dudley
Street passed away on Monday, September 26,
2022, at his home. Born on December 21, 1982,
in Berlin, he was the son of Dennis and Evelyn
(Dalley) Farnham. He attended local Barre
schools. Lyle made his home in the central Vermont
area except for three years that he lived in
North Carolina. In his spare time, he enjoyed fishing, sports–
he was a diehard New York Yankees fan–NASCAR racing,
and he competed in barbecue competitions for many years.
Most of all, he loved spending time with his nieces and nephews.
One of his greatest achievements was being an uncle.
Survivors include his parents, grandmother, siblings, and extended
family. The service to honor and celebrate his life was
held on Saturday, October 1, 2022 in the Washington Village
Church. Following the service, inurnment took place in the
Maple Hill Cemetery in Washington. Arrangements are by

MILTON RUS-
SELL was born
June 17, 1938 and died August
28, 2022. In his childhood
years, Milton developed a deep
love of nature, an adventuring
spirit, a strong work ethic and
abundant curiosity. Milton became a proficient
driver early, a skill that served him well
when he later became an ambulance driver in
the military. Never having owned a television,
listening to music was one of his favorite
pastimes. A voracious reader, Milton’s library
is full of books spanning world history,
art and scientific discoveries. Milton was as
independent as he was outspoken. He was
gregarious, generous, mirthful, humble, compassionate
and most of all – kind. He loved
his family, both human and animal. He took
pride in and supported his community in
ways that many will never know. He longed
for a world that was more peaceful and giving.

Vermont Launches Initiative to Reduce
Rising Number of Suicides
Suicides in Vermont are at
a 25-year high, and state
health officials have issued a
call to action for Vermonters
to be partners in bending this
curve. To help make this happen,
the Vermont Department
of Health and Department of
Mental Health have launched
“Facing Suicide VT,” a statewide prevention
effort funded by the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention. Facing Suicide VT
provides access to suicide prevention education,
support, and advocacy resources.
This initiative features a comprehensive
website, FacingSuicideVT.com. The site provides
information and resources about how to
get help for people struggling or in crisis. The
website also features information about how
to give help – including tips for having conversations
about suicide. People can also see
stories of hope and recovery from Vermonters
who have personal experience with suicide
and mental health challenges.
Suicide can affect anyone regardless of
age, gender or background. Suicide is the
ninth leading cause of death in Vermont, and
the second leading cause of death among
people in Vermont ages 15 to 34. In 2021,
there were 142 suicide deaths among Vermont
residents, the highest number and rate of suicide
deaths recorded in the state.
“Suicide is a significant and complex public
health concern that impacts every community
in Vermont and across the nation,”
said Nick Nichols, coordinator of the Health
Department’s Suicide Prevention Program.
“COVID-19 exacerbated the risk factors for
many Vermonters, including isolation, financial
and job insecurities, illness, and difficulties
accessing services during the peak of the
pandemic. Our work is focused on making
sure suicide prevention happens at multiple
levels – individual, interpersonal, community
and societal. We all play an important role in
reducing the risk of suicide for fellow
Vermonters,” Nichols said.
FacingSuicideVT.com also features
resources specific for Vermonters at higher
risk of suicide – including people who are
LGBTQ+, Vermonters with a disability, those
who live in rural areas, males, first responders,
service members and veterans.
Higher risk also includes ready access to
firearms by people in crisis. In Vermont, most
deaths involving firearms are due to suicide.
A suicide attempt with a firearm is more
likely to be fatal than most other means.
Understanding the warning signs and putting
space between a gun and a person having
thoughts of suicide or harming themselves is
essential. Facing Suicide VT offers resources
that explain the importance of safely storing
firearms and ammunition.
Department of Mental Health Deputy
Commissioner Alison Krompf said Facing
Suicide VT provides both lived experience
and professional perspectives on how to support
individuals and their loved ones when
someone is experiencing mental health challenges.
“Having these resources in one, easily
accessible place can encourage conversations
about suicide,” said Krompf. “This leads to
reducing the stigma associated with mental
health concerns, and most importantly, can
help save lives.”
“By learning to recognize warning signs in
others, making the connections and having
meaningful conversations with the people we
care about in times of crisis, we can make the
single most important difference in someone’s
life,” said Nichols.
Learn more about the Facing Suicide VT
initiative and how to get involved at
FacingSuicideVT.com.
If you or someone you know is thinking
about suicide, dial 988 for the Suicide and
Crisis Lifeline or text VT to 741741 for the
Crisis Text Line. Trained counselors are
available 24/7.
If you are concerned about your or a loved
one’s safety or need emergency medical services,
call 9-1-1.

We have been the state’s public health
agency for more than 130 years, working
every day to protect and promote the health of
Vermonters. Visit healthvermont.gov. Join us
@healthvermont on Facebook, Twitter,
Instagram, and YouTube.
About the Department of Mental Health
Our vision and mission are to ensure
Vermonters will have access to the prevention,
early intervention, and mental health
treatment services needed to live, work, learn,
and participate fully in supportive and compassionate
communities.

Forgiving and Forgetting?
By G. E. Shuman
I
don’t know how you are in the area of
memory function, of recalling specific
memories from the past. Well, okay,
every memory is from the past. Duhh. For
me, although I probably couldn’t tell you
what I had for lunch yesterday, I can easily remember things
that were done or said to me sixty years ago. I can even
remember the circumstances and could describe some events
from those moments in great detail to you.
Fortunately for you, you probably don’t have any interest in
or reason to hear detailed descriptions of things from my past,
and I’m not here to share those with you. You get enough of
that if you have ever read one of my books. One way or
another, those things always seem to come through in my writing,
whether it is fiction or non.
Unfortunately, for me, and perhaps for you, the things
remembered most vividly are nearly always the most negative
things. The hurtful words or actions of others, whether relatives,
employers, or ‘friends’ always seem to stick in the mind
the most. (Being pierced is more permanent than being only
bumped, I suppose.) It just seems much easier to forget some
good time experienced than some cruel or thoughtless statement
or action of another. Likewise, our own negative actions
are usually remembered more vividly by us than some good
thing we might have done.
Recently, though, and several times now, I have been
reminded that living in the past, or spending too much time

entertainment, and diverse educational programming. Formerly
Vermont Public Radio and Vermont PBS, Vermont Public
also provides local access to national programming from

dwelling on thoughts from the past is not at all a healthy way
to be. One recent evening I just could not get some old hateful
memories of things said by old, hateful people, out of my
thoughts, and it made that evening a miserable one for me,
and for my wife. For that, I am truly sorry.
I need to get my ‘forgetter’ into gear when it comes to those
things. I’m not exactly sure how you do that, but I need to try.
One suggestion, by a dear nephew of mine, would be to, in his
words, “Unc, you need to adjust your give-a-‘blank’ button.”
I do get that point. It’s just not an easy thing to do. Besides,
it’s hard to not care.
At our church last Sunday we were reminded of the idea of
forgetting the past, as verse 13 of the book of Philippians,
chapter 3, was read: “Brethren, I count not myself to have
apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things
which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which
are before.” There the Apostle Paul was reminding us how
important it is to look to the future, not the past. (And he did
have quite a past.)
Another time this week I was reminded to forget, if I can,
the hateful words of others from the past. This is done through
true forgiveness, which is something else I need to work on.
What happened is that somewhere online I read a short but
profound quote from some unknown (to me) but very wise
person. The quote was simply this: “Forgiveness is giving up
on the idea of having a better past.” Think about that.
So, let us forgive, to have a better future.

By Deb Paul
As Libraries get back into groove and we head into next
year’s budget, lets make sure our libraries stay healthy. The
reason is simple: Patrons want more open hours at the library.
More residents are using the public library for many different
reasons. While at a casual glance the action of adding
money to our libraries could be interpreted as ignoring the
economic hardship taxpayers face. In reality, a more accurate
response is that as times get tough and money gets tight,
residents are using their libraries more and more, which is a
good thing. If there is a little extra money, we should think of
giving it to the library, the place that only gives back to the
residents.
Just as we don’t believe newspapers will disappear, we
don’t think books will either. As the cost of books increase
and bookstores close, libraries become even more vital.
Reading a good book can bring a lot of satisfaction, something
that’s hard to duplicate.
We’ve heard people question the usefulness of a library in
recent years or a book in today’s digital age. We think they’re
totally off base. Libraries aren’t stuck in the 19th century;
they have audio books for the commuter, or downloadable
books for e-readers and computers. Technology plays a major
role in their offerings these days, meeting the needs of both
To Have and Have Not (1944)
★★★★
Perhaps you’re a normal American. You Stand With
Ukraine. Maybe you have the blue and yellow flag next
to your name on Facebook and Twitter. You don’t even
mind that our government is giving arms to Ukraine to ensure
that the war is as long and as vicious as possible.
Well I do mind.
“But, Max!” you exclaim in horror. “Russia brutally invaded
a neighboring country in order to reconquer and dominate
a former territory!” That is true. Russia is definitely the bad
guy; but that doesn’t mean that Ukraine is the good guy. By
that logic, the Confederate States of America were the undeniable
good guys in the Civil War.
I do not support Ukraine. I absolutely do not support
Russia. I support peace.
You don’t have to choose sides in a foreign war. Just like
you don’t have to choose sides in a fist fight outside a bar. If
you do end up rooting for one of the fighters because he looks
more dashing in his green tee-shirt, please don’t hand him a
crowbar. That’s never the right thing to do.
Neutrality is the sane choice and the moral choice. Captain
Harry Morgan understands that well enough.
“To Have and Have Not” takes place in French Martinique,
1940. Captain Morgan (Humphrey Bogart) earns a meager
living taking tourists out fishing on his boat.
After Germany conquers France, quiet little Martinique
becomes a war zone. Nazi-aligned Vichy take over. And they
are trying to stamp out the French Resistance.
Morgan’s friend asks him to illegally transport some
Resistance fighters. The Captain turns the offer down flat.
Morgan has more important things on his mind.
Captain Morgan wants to make love, not war. He just met
an alluring young American – Marie Browning (Lauren
Bacall) – who is stranded on Martinique without a way home.
But Marie is no damsel in distress. She is adventurous, selfassured,
and she’s falling in love with Captain Morgan.
I like all four of the movies that Bogart and Bacall made
together. But “To Have and Have Not” is the first and the best.
See You at the Library
the tech-savvy and those who want to hold a book in their
hands.
Think back, how many of us introduced our children to a
love of reading when they were toddlers, sitting with them at
library story time sessions, then, heading home with lots of
picture books? That book is comfort, when snuggling at bedtime
to bond or escaping the stress of the day is better with a
book than a device.
These days, most of us can’t afford to spend money on
entertainment. The numerous free programs offered at our
public libraries ranging from movies to lectures and art shows
give us options to get out of the house, spend time with others,
and maybe learn something in the process. Often with a
snack thrown in.
When hometown entertainment just won’t do, most libraries
offer free or reduced admission passes to museums in both
New Hampshire and Massachusetts.
Remember where people gather when the power goes out
in winter storms? At the library. Kind of a definition of “community,”
isn’t it?
We’d hate to see any of this go away. A library is one place
where we do get our money’s worth. What we’re finding is
that, as money gets tight, we turn to our local library more
and more. Pay one a visit today.
Statement from Governor On Canada Ending Border Crossing Mandates
Governor Phil Scott issued the following statement in response
to the Canadian government removing all vaccination,
ArriveCan, and random COVID-19 testing requirements for
border crossings, effective September 30, 2022:
“This is another welcomed development along our northern
border with Canada. Removing barriers to cross border travel
allows our border communities to return to normal social and
economic activity, which is an important part of the connection
between our two countries.
“As was made clear during my recent trade mission to
• • •
• • •
• • •
Montreal, there is a lot of interest in Vermont as a place to vacation
and do business – and this step will also make tourism
and business travel easier, benefitting Vermont’s economy.
“We hope the United States federal government will soon
lift vaccine mandates on the U.S. side of the border, removing
the final hurdle to finally returning to pre-pandemic border
crossing levels. Our future is bright with our neighbor to the
north and we thank the Canadian government for making this
change to their border crossing policy.”
Lauren Bacall went from a teenage model to a timeless
superstar in 90 minutes. It isn’t just her looks (incredible) or
her sincere attraction for Bogart (intense). It was her excellent
acting.
Marie isn’t a bombshell, she’s a real woman. I love the way
she expresses passive-aggressive jealousy when a pretty
Resistance fighter is flirting with Morgan. Marie lands a gig
as a hotel lounge singer. She knows she can do it but she
expresses just the right amount of stage fright on her first
night.
Morgan pays a lot more attention to Marie than the war.
And rightly so.
But the war won’t leave him alone. After an arrogant Vichy
officer steals all of Morgan’s money, the broke Captain is
forced to take the job for the Resistance.
And here’s where director Howard Hawkes really surprised
me. He doesn’t turn “To Have and Have Not” into a propaganda
film like “Casablanca.” Captain Morgan never has a
change of heart and he never joins the cause.
However, Hawkes shows us what made World War II
uniquely horrible. Innocent people around the globe – from
London to Manila, from Leningrad to Nanking, from the
Caribbean to the Sahara – were forced to participate.
Thank goodness there is nothing like that in today’s world.
We have no need to participate in the Russia/Ukraine war. We
should stop arming Ukraine and simply root for peace.

Ron Scholtz shows off his giant 18’ 4 1/4” sunflower and giant
pumpkin, squash and gourds at Agway of Montpelier.
Sunzilla Strikes Again
What a year for Williamstown’s Ron Scholtz who likes to
grow vegetables and flowers in a big way.
Known for his zeal for growing giant pumpkins, gourds and
squash, this year he succeeded in winning a first place at Sam
Mazza’s Farm Stand for a 18’ 4 1/4” tall sunflower on Sept. 17.
It was a state record.
A few days earlier at the Tunbridge Worlds Fair on Sept.
15, Scholtz won first prize for a 16’ 6” sunflower. And he had
a Largest Field Pumpkin at 70-plus pounds and a first place
for a 65-plus pound zucchini. Also a prize for that 14’ Tallest
Field Corn.
Amazingly enough, at the Sept. 8 “Sunzilla” event in Waterbury,
Scholtz entered a 16’ sunflower and won that contest.
What’s his secret? He won’t say other than the right weather
conditions and “a lot of luck!”
ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
You might not like the sudden
setback in your plans. But keep
that headstrong Arian temperament
in check and wait for explanations.
Things will begin to clear
up by week’s end.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Enjoy the respite from your recent
hectic schedule, but be ready to plunge into a new round
of social activities. A new contact holds much potential for the
future.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A trusted colleague has news that
could change your perception of a current workplace situation.
What had seemed unfair might prove to be highly favorable after
all.
CANCER ( June 21 to July 22) You still need to watch what you
say and how you say it. What you assert as honesty, others might
perceive as Crabbiness. Be patient. This difficult period clears up
by the weekend.

The Many Forms of
Breast Cancer
Not all breast cancers are alike. There are
several kinds of breast cancer based on
where it shows up, which cells are affected
and how it acts.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention defines
breast cancer as “a disease in which cells in the breast grow
out of control.”
UNDERSTANDING THE BREAST
To understand the types of cancer, it first helps to know
how the breast is constructed. The breast has three main
parts:
• Lobules: The glands that produce milk.
• Ducts: the tubes that carry ilk to the nipple.
• Connective tissue: Consisting of fibrous and fatty tissue, it
surrounds and holds everything together.
Most of the time, the CDC says, breast cancers begin in the
ducts or lobules.
OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH | THE WORLD
COMMON TYPES OF BREAST CANCER
The two most common forms of breast cancer according to
the CDC are invasive ductal carcinoma and invasive lobular
carcinoma.
With invasive ductal carcinoma, the cancer cells show up
in the ducts and spread to other parts of the breast tissue.
Sometimes the cancer cells spread to other parts of the body.
In invasive lobular carcinoma, cancer cells first appear in the
lobules and spread to nearby breast tissues or other parts of
the body.
When the cancer cells spread to other parts of the body, it
is called metastatic breast cancer, also known as a stage IV
breast cancer.
UNCOMMON TYPES OF BREAST CANCER
Some less frequently occurring types of breast cancer are:
• Paget’s disease: Cancer cells appear first in the nipple or the
areola, the darker circle around the nipple. People who have
this usually also have additional tumors in the same breast.
The National Cancer Institute reports that only about 1 to 4%
of all breast cancer cases involve Paget’s disease.
• Medullary: This cancer starts in the milk ducts and then
spreads to the surrounding breast tissue. It behaves differently
than other forms of ductal breast cancer. According to
Medical News Today, it represents only 3-5% of all breast
cancer diagnoses. The tumors tend to grow slowly and don’t
usually spread to the lymph nodes.
• Mucinous: Also known as colloid breast cancer, it begins
in the milk ducts and spreads to tissues around the duct. The
tumors typically have more than usual amounts of mucous.
These tumor cells are less aggressive than other forms of
ductal cancer and are more responsive to treatment. John
Hopkins Medicine reports that it occurs in only 2% of all
breast cancers.
• Inflammatory breast cancer: This form of cancer is highly
aggressive. It occurs when cancer cells block lymph vessels
and often cause the breast to be swollen, inflamed or red.
This form of cancer is fast-moving, often spreading in a matter
of weeks or months. While it accounts for only 1 to 5%
of breast cancer cases, according to The Cancer Institute, it
is more likely to be diagnosed at younger ages and in Black
women.
• Angiosarcoma: Angiosarcoma starts in the cells around
either the lymph vessels or the blood vessels. The American
Cancer Society says that sarcomas of the breast occur in less
than 1% of all breast cancers and are sometimes related to
prior radiation treatments.
• Triple-negative breast cancer: This is an aggressive,
invasive type of breast cancer. The cancer cells lack estrogen
and progesterone receptors and either don’t make any of
the proteins called HER2 or make very few. The American
Cancer Society said this represents 15% of all breast cancers
and is difficult to treat

PLANNING MEALS
The National Cancer Institute recommends meeting with a
dietitian, but it also has published a 60-page booklet “Eating
Hints: Before, during and after treatment.” They offer the following
tips to plan meals before your treatments start:
• Stock up on healthy foods, including foods you know you
can eat when you feel sick.
• Select foods that need little to no cooking, either ready-toeat
meals or frozen dinners.
• Ask others for help with shopping and meal preparation.
EATING DURING TREATMENTS
The foods you need will vary based on the symptoms you
experience. The National Cancer Institute and the University
of Southern California San Francisco make the following
suggestions:
• Nausea: Eat low-fat, bland and salty foods. Drink cool, clear
beverages between meals Avoid your favorite foods so you
don’t develop an aversion to them. Rest sitting up for at least
an hour and don’t lie flat for at least two hours. Avoid odors
by having someone else cook and eating in a room away from
the kitchen.
• Suggested foods: oatmeal, cold cereal, soups, cold sandwiches,
cottage cheese, hard-boiled eggs, plain pasta, rice,
noodles, mashed potatoes, toast, crackers, pretzels, canned
fruit, applesauce, Jell-O, custard and pudding, sherbet,
Popsicles, soda, juice, herbal tea, peaches or soft fruits and
vegetables, skinned chicken that is baked, and teas with
ginger or peppermint.
• Vomiting: Stop eating until you get the vomiting under
control. Consume tiny amounts of clear liquids. Once you can
tolerate liquids, move on to soft and bland foods like mashed
potatoes, rice, pureed fruit, smoothies, yogurts and cereal.
When you feel better, try eating high potassium and magnesium
foods such as bananas, potatoes, orange juice, tomatoes
and apricots.
• Constipation: Add fiber to your diet and try to include it in
each meal. Increase fiber gradually so you don’t experience
gas. Reduce your caffeine intake. Exercise more.
OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH | THE WORLD
Nutrition During Treatment
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy can cause eating-related
issues. Some people lose their appetites, others experience
nausea, diarrhea or constipation.
• Suggested foods: Kidney beans, chickpeas, lentils, fresh
fruit and vegetables, dried fruit, bran cereals, shredded wheat,
prune juice and hot lemon water.
• Diarrhea: Drink lots of room-temperature liquids. Eat more
potassium-rich foods. Follow the BRAT diet: bananas, rice,
applesauce, tea and toast. Eat frequent, small meals. Avoid
foods that are greasy, fried, spicy or highly seasoned. Avoid
raw vegetables, milk, ice cream or puddings.
• Suggested foods: Oatmeal, plain rice and corn cereals,
canned fruits, white rice, pasta, potatoes without skins, soups
without creams, cheese and crackers, graham crackers and
peanut butter, eggs, soda, herbal tea and Jell-O.
• Loss of appetite: Eat by the clock, three small meals and
three snacks. Choose high-calorie foods such as avocados,
nuts, seeds, puddings, dried fruit and vegetables dipped in
hummus. Plan your daily menu in advance. Make your food
look good by using colorful foods and garnishes. Make mealtimes
pleasant and eat with others whenever you can.
• Taste and smell aversions: Choose foods that look and smell
good. If beef smells or tastes odd, switch to chicken or turkey.
Marinate foods. Incorporate oranges, limes, lemon or vinegar
into your recipes. Make foods sweeter by adding sugar or
sweetener. Add extra flavors such as bacon bits, onions, or
herbs like basil, oregano and rosemary. Pour barbecue sauce
on meat and chicken. Serve foods at room temperature. Drink
through a straw. Cook outdoors or use a kitchen fan.
Family history
increases risk for
breast cancer
Millions of people across the globe will be diagnosed
with breast cancer this year. In fact, only certain skin
cancers affect more women than breast cancer within the
United States and Canada.
The World Cancer Research Fund International says
breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in
women across the globe.
Belgium, The Netherlands and Luxembourg had the
highest number of breast cancer cases in 2020, while Barbados
and Fiji had the greatest number of deaths attributed
to the disease. Some of these high case numbers may
be attributed to women with family histories of breast
cancer — something that increases risk significantly.
BreastCancer.org indicates that women with close relatives
who have had breast cancer, such as sisters, mothers
or grandmothers, are at considerably higher risk of developing
breast cancer themselves. Also, breast cancer may
occur at a younger age in women with family histories of
the disease.
Understanding breast cancer risk is vital for women’s
health. The following breakdown, courtesy of the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention, can help women
from all backgrounds understand their risk for breast
cancer.
AVERAGE RISK:
No first- or second-degree relatives with breast or
ovarian cancer, or one second-degree female relative with
breast cancer (in one breast only) diagnosed after age 50.
MODERATE RISK:
This is a somewhat higher risk that may not turn into
breast cancer. It occurs when there is one or two firstdegree
or two second-degree female relatives with breast
cancer (in one breast only), with both relatives diagnosed
after age 50; otherwise, one or two first- or second-degree
relatives with high grade prostate cancer.

Patient Choices Vermont Endorses
Residency Requirement Challenge
Patient Choices Vermont (PCV) applauds the work of Dr.
Diana Barnard, in collaboration with the national organization
Compassion & Choices, to challenge the residency requirement
contained in Vermont’s Act 39 in Federal Court.
Act 39, adopted in May 2013, enables terminally ill
Vermonters who are capable of making their own medical
decisions, the option to request and receive medication they
can use to bring about a peaceful death; if and when they so
choose. Act 39, like similar laws in other states across the
country, makes end-of-life choice available only to residents
of Vermont. PCV agrees with the plaintiffs in the lawsuit who
state that this restriction is unconstitutional, and that it
improperly restricts people from crossing state lines to receive
the medical services they seek. Medical aid in dying is the
only medical service that is subject to such a restriction.
A recent lawsuit settlement in Oregon created an important
precedent for deleting the residency requirement in Vermont.
The Oregon settlement requires officials there to 1) issue
directives halting enforcement of the unconstitutional residency
provision, and 2) initiate a legislative request to permanently
remove the residency language from the law.
PCV has worked since 2013 to educate and expand the
network of Vermont’s medical providers who support patients
throughout the Act 39 process. The PCV Helpline and website
resources will be augmented to assist out-of-state residents
once they can legally access medical aid in dying in Vermont.
Family history continued from previous page
STRONG RISK:
Women with strong risks have much higher chances of
developing breast cancer than the general population. Conditions
like having one or more first- or second-degree relatives
with breast cancer diagnosed at age 45 or younger, triple
negative breast cancer, primary cancer of both breasts, and
both breast and ovarian cancer in the same relative are warning
signs of increased risk.
It’s important for women with increased risk for breast
cancer due to family history to discuss options with their
doctors. More frequent mammograms and other screening
tests may be recommended, and screening at younger ages
than the standard age also may be considered. Women who
are at high risk may be urged to undergo genetic counseling
and testing for hereditary breast and ovarian cancer markers.
Breast cancer can be an especially scary prospect for
women with family histories of the disease. By familiarizing
themselves with their risks for breast cancer, women can take
the necessary steps to protect their long-term health.
OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH | THE WORLD
Make Yourself Your Top Priority
From the moment a person gets diagnosed with breast cancer, they
are immediately surrounded with a care team.
Oncologists, surgeons, radiologists, nutritionists, oncology
social workers, genetic counselors and mental health professionals
work together to provide care.
However, that team can only do so much. Ultimately, a
cancer patient needs to be committed to self-care throughout
the treatment process and afterward to contribute to a successful
outcome.
TAKE INVENTORY
The University of California San Francisco Medical Center
is in the process of researching whether self-care and lifestyle
changes can improve survival rates and lessen some of the
side-effects experienced during treatment. While they don’t
yet have definitive results, they recommend
• Developing good self-care skills. Take care of yourself the
way you would your best friend, your spouse, your child.
• Eat well. Don’t jump from diet to diet and either deprive
yourself or binge. Find ways to eat that are healthy and make
you feel good about yourself.
• Drink plenty of water.
• Sleep well.
• Avoid cigarettes and excessive alcohol.
• Manage stress. What can you change? What do you need to
adapt to?
• Move your body. Discover what sort of movement feels
good and provides you with pleasure.
• Identify the things that make you feel bad and figure out
how you might eliminate those things or make them less of a
stressor.
• Discover your passions, those things which give your life
meaning and stir your creativity.
Flexibility is also important. They write, “Lifestyle
change is not a written prescription that never changes. It is
a dynamic process that is often in crisis and flux throughout
breast cancer diagnosis and treatment.”
BE A STUDENT
Breast Cancer Now is a British charity devoted to research
and care. They have put together a self-care toolkit of videos,
tips, phone apps to provide daily self-care tips, help lines
and interviews with other survivors. Do your homework and
find the resources that match with your lifestyle and learning
style.
Breast Cancer Now’s toolkit is divided into the following
self-care areas:
• Be kind to yourself.
• Manage diet and exercise.
• Look after your mental health.
• Uplift your body image and identity.
Survivors share several practical ways to do all of the
above. Ann Silberman wrote an article for Healthline where
she recommended doing such things as hiring a cleaning service,
taking care of your hair or letting a stylist do it once a
week, finding somewhere in nature where you can walk or sit
and find peace, learning your limitations and communicating
them to your loved ones, starting new hobbies or spending
time doing ones you already love, and helping others.
Another place that can be your partner in self-care is a spa.
Many massage therapists are trained in oncology massage,
using protocols that can lessen the intensity of side-effects
you experience. Consider finding a spa near you that o fers
oncology massage and set up regular appointments; you may
even be able to purchase a subscription.
Every self-care plan will be unique. Build yours around
your individual needs and the things that most brings you
contentment and joy.

Why? First, it’s hard to keep cancer a secret. Children will
see that you are acting differently, they’ll notice changes to
your body or even overhear things. If they aren’t told what is
happening, they’ll often believe the worst and become more
afraid.
WHAT TO TELL A CHILD
The exact information you tell a child will depend on the
child’s age and personality. The American Cancer Society
recommends telling children the name of the cancer, how it
will be treated, what sort of side effects might occur and how
the cancer can affect their lives.
The Komen Foundation advises giving honest, real answers
to any questions a child asks and to encourage them to
talk to you and ask questions. If you don’t know the answer
to a question, admit it and tell them you will find out the
answer.
It’s OK to tell a child that you are scared and that it’s all
right for everyone to have strong feelings about it. Just reassure
them that the family will be able to handle whatever
comes their way.
HOW TO TELL A CHILD
The American Cancer Society gives several pieces of
advice for talking to children about cancer.
• Find a quiet time where you won’t be disturbed.
• Talk to each child alone so you can customize what you
say based on the child’s needs and age.
• Choose a time when you are feeling calm.
• In a two-parent household, talk to children together. In a
single-parent household, consider having a trusted friend or
relative in on the discussion.
• Plan how you will talk to each child. Anticipate questions
they might ask.
• During and after the treatments, check in with your children
to see how they are doing.
OCTOBER IS BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH | THE WORLD
Talking to Children about Cancer
Breast cancer doesn’t just affect the person diagnosed with it, but the
entire family. As difficult as it is to tell children about a breast cancer
diagnosis, it is important to do so.
RESPOND TO CONCERNS CHILDREN HAVE
Children who are afraid often respond irrationally. The
American Cancer Society points out that children often
engage in “magical thinking,” where they believe that they
make things happen.
Anticipate the guilt your children might feel and head off
their natural tendency to blame themselves. Children or teens
who have been angry with their parents might feel they are
being punished by their parent getting cancer.
Even if children don’t express guilt, the American Cancer
Society recommends saying something like, “The doctors
have told us that no one can cause someone else to get cancer.
It’s nothing that any of us made happen.”
Another fear that children sometimes have is that cancer
is contagious or that their other parent will get it too, or even
that they will get it. It’s important to explain to that cancer
doesn’t work that way. They might be afraid that everyone
who gets cancer dies from it. Parents can reassure children
that medical science has learned a lot about cancer and people
are often able to live with it now.
Finally, reassure children that they are still loved and will
be taken care of even when their parent is sick.
How to support
loved ones who
have breast cancer
Efforts to educate women about breast cancer have
helped raise awareness of the disease and just
how treatable it is when detected early. Despite that,
a diagnosis can still be difficult for women and their
families. When someone close to you is affected by
breast cancer, priorities suddenly change and you may
be wondering what you can do to provide the support
needed to help this person navigate any ups and downs
that could be on the horizon.
A breast cancer diagnosis does not produce a uniform
response. While one loved one may embrace others
wanting to help, another may feel she is a burden and
exhibit an unwillingness to accept help. In the latter
instance, being a supportive bystander may require walking
on eggshells. Even still, there are some universal
ways to lend support when a friend or a loved one has
been diagnosed with cancer.
• Offer practical support. Cancer affects the body in
a number of ways. Energy levels may wane and certain
symptoms may arise. Side effects from treatments also
can make it difficult to continue with daily tasks. So
an offer to help with tasks associated with daily living,
such as cooking meals, gardening, washing clothes, or
cleaning up around the house, can be practical and much
appreciated. Approach the individual and ask questions
in pointed ways. Rather than, “What can I do to help?”,
which may result in an answer of, “Nothing,” figure out
a way to pitch in and then ask if that would be acceptable.
This may be, “Would you like me to run to the
supermarket for you today?”
• Offer emotional support. Someone with breast cancer
may just need a person who can be there and listen. A
hug, a nod of understanding or even a companion who
can chat and take the person’s mind off the cancer can
be immensely helpful. Keep in mind that emotions may
change on a dime, and some emotions may be directed

Did you know?
Women diagnosed with breast cancer who want to speak with someone
who has survived the disease can do so thanks to a unique program
sponsored by the American Cancer Society. The Reach to Recovery
program from the ACS connects current cancer patients with breast
cancer survivors via an online chat. Patients, regardless of where they
are in their cancer journeys, can connect with volunteers for one-onone
support. Volunteers can help patients cope with treatment and side
effects while also offering advice on speaking with friends and family,
working while receiving treatment and more. Even people facing a possible
breast cancer diagnosis can sign up. The program works by asking
patients and volunteers to join the program and create profiles on the
Reach to Recovery website (www.reach.cancer.org). Patients then look
for a match by searching volunteer profiles, filtering through suggested
matches and sending an online chat request to volunteers. Patients and
volunteers can then schedule a chat and discuss any concerns patients
may have. Volunteers with the Reach to Recovery program are breast
cancer survivors who have been trained by the ACS to provide peer-topeer
support to people facing a breast cancer diagnosis. Volunteers can
provide support to patients, but are prohibited from offering medical
advice. More information about the Reach to Recovery program, including
how to join as a patient or volunteer, is available at www.reach.

Breast Density a Flag for Cancer
Breasts can be classified as dense or fatt . Nearly half of all
women over 40 have dense breasts.
Dense breasts make it harder to diagnose breast cancer
while at the same time making it more likely to develop
breast cancer.
• • •
Support Loved Ones continued from previous page
at support systems. While it can feel hurtful, remember the
real reason for any outburst is the disease. Patience is needed
at all times.
• Learn what you can about breast cancer. Research the
type of cancer your loved one has, which may make it easier
to understand what to expect. If the person is amenable, you
may consider accompanying her to appointments to hear
firsthand about the next steps in her treatment and recover .
• Maintain a positive attitude. It’s never easy knowing
someone you love is sick. They are going through their own
emotional roller coaster, and support systems can lift their
spirits by maintaining positive attitudes. Avoid wearing rosecolored
glasses, but try to remain as upbeat as possible.
• Find a support group. Professional support groups are
great resources for coping with a cancer journey. Supporting
a person with cancer takes its own unique toll, particularly
when caring for a spouse, child or mother with breast cancer.
Support groups for support networks can be helpful.
Individuals diagnosed with breast cancer may need a little
extra love and support. It’s up to caregivers and friends to
step up and provide what is needed.
WHAT IS BREAST DENSITY?
Breast density describes the relative amount of different
types of breast tissue — glandular, connective and fat — that
is seen in a mammogram. If there is a high amount of glandular
or fibrous connective tissue and low amounts of fatty
tissue, the breast is considered dense.
According to the National Cancer Institute, doctors use the
Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System to define breast
density. The American College of Radiology developed this
system to help radiologists interpret and report mammogram
findings.
There are four categories classifying breast density:
A. Almost entirely fatty breast tissue, found in about 10% of
women.
B. Scattered areas of dense glandular tissue and fibrous co -
nective tissue, found in about 40% of women.
C. Heterogeneously dense breast tissue with many areas of
glandular tissue and fibrous connective tissue, found in about
40% of women.
D. Extremely dense breast tissue, found in about 10% of
women.
Dense breasts are defined as being either C or D in the list.
WHAT CAUSES DENSE BREASTS?
Researchers are still studying what causes dense breasts
and the relationship between them and cancer. It is suspected
to be genetic, though there are some factors that might infl -
ence breast density.
Lower breast density is often associated with increasing
age, having children and using tamoxifen, an estrogen
modulator. The risk for dense breasts increases for those who
use postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy and have
a low body mass index.
RISKS OF DENSE BREASTS
There are two important factors associated with dense
breasts.
First, dense breasts indicate a higher risk for breast cancer.
Researchers are still trying to figure out wh , but some suggest
that it might be because there are more cells in a dense
breast, thus increasing the number of places where cancer
can develop.
Second, it makes cancer harder to diagnose. Both dense
tissue and breast masses/cancer show up as white on a mammogram,
so it decreases the contrast and the ability to detect
them. A person with dense breasts is more likely to be called
back for additional tests.
All of that said, a person with dense breasts has no greater
or lesser risk of dying from cancer.
WHAT SHOULD A PERSON WITH
DENSE BREASTS DO?
Some states, according to the American Cancer Society,
require radiologists to tell patients that they have dense
breasts. Many states require insurance companies to cover
supplemental imaging tests for people with dense breasts.
As of 2022, there are still ongoing clinical trials evaluating
whether people with dense breasts should get 3-D mammograms,
ultrasounds and MRIs.
Some research, according to the National Cancer Institute,
suggests that people with dense breasts should adopt
a screening strategy that includes other risk and protective
factors. People with dense breasts should discuss their risk
factors with their doctor.

Did you know?
According to the American Cancer Society, recent research
has found that sleeping problems associated with cancer
treatment persist in almost 40 percent of cancer survivors for
up to five years after diagnosis. The 2019 study, published
in the journal Sleep Medicine, also found that one-fifth of
cancer survivors reported poor sleep quality at nine years
after diagnosis. In fact, high sleep disturbance was reported
by 51 percent of long-term cancer survivors. The researchers
studied more than 1,900 long-term cancer survivors
nine years after diagnosis, and participants had one of 10
common cancers, including cancers of the breast, prostate,
bladder, kidney, and lung. It’s especially important for cancer
survivors to recognize the potential for sleep problems after
successful treatment, as the Mayo Clinic notes that sufficient
rest is a vital component of patients’ recovery. Survivors
experiencing difficulty sleeping after successful cancer trea -
ments can discuss their issues with their physicians, who
may recommend certain sleep aides or strategies to increase
patients’ chances of getting more restful sleep.

Take a Time Out for Turtles: Volunteers Needed for Nesting Beach Clean Up Day
Vermont Fish and Wildlife’s annual spiny softshell turtle
beach cleanup day is Saturday, October 15, and the department
is looking for volunteers to help.
Participants are asked to arrive at North Hero State Park at
10:00 a.m. After finishing at North Hero, the group will carpool
to another site in Swanton.
Volunteers will pull up vegetation on nesting beaches to
prepare turtle nesting sites for next year. They may also find
a few hatchlings that occasionally remain in nests underground
this late in the year. In addition to threatened spiny
softshell turtles, these nest sites are also used by map turtles,
painted turtles, and snapping turtles.
Vermont Fish and Wildlife biologist Toni Mikula will have
hatchling spiny softshell and other turtles on hand and will
talk about the department’s long-term turtle recovery efforts.
Some of these hatchling turtles will be raised in captivity by
the ECHO Leahy Center for Lake Champlain while they are
small and most vulnerable to predation. They will be released
back into Lake Champlain next spring.
“This is a great way to help conserve threatened wildlife
right here in Vermont,” said Mikula. “It’s also a fun way to
New Data Layers Add Social Variables to
Vermont Conservation Design Planning Tool
The Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department
announced a significant upgrade to its
BioFinder planning and conservation mapping
tool.
New data layers will allow users to display
socio-economic variables including per capita
poverty, health insurance coverage, and a
social vulnerability index alongside the ecological
datasets from Vermont Conservation
Design that currently populate BioFinder.
BioFinder was first created in 2013. The
current update is a collaboration between the
Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department
(VFWD), the Vermont Department of Health
(VDH), and the Vermont Natural Resources
Council (VNRC).
“Biologists can point out the most ecologically
important places on a landscape, but
actually conserving those areas involves community
action,” said VFWD Conservation
Planning Biologist Jens Hawkins-Hilke.
“When planners understand how ecological
priorities line up with community values,
they can better craft conservation opportunities
that benefit both people and nature.”
Meeting the needs of both human and natural
communities is an important part of the
State of Vermont’s strategy for responding to
climate change.
“Hurricane Irene showed us the need for
this approach,” said Hilke. “During Irene,
mobile home communities were disproportionately
impacted by flooding. With flooding
projected to increase as our climate
changes, it makes sense to focus riparian

help at-risk Vermonters whenever possible.”
VNRC Forest and Wildlife Program
Director Jamey Fidel said the mapping tool
can also be an important resource to help
address Vermont’s housing crisis while supporting
the health of local ecosystems.
“The parcel data that have been added to
BioFinder will allow users to analyze subdivision
trends, which can inform users about
land use patterns,” said Fidel. “This is essential
to planning housing in appropriate locations,
while better protecting important ecological
priorities and natural resources.”
Indicators of community resilience can
also help planners to understand why some
areas are more impacted by a particular situation,
such as a natural disaster or disease
outbreak.
“By including these public health data in
BioFinder, we can better assess systemic
inequities and take steps to support Vermonters
and the ecosystems they depend on,” said
David Grass, Program Manager with the
Vermont Health Department’s Environmental
Tracking Program.

356 River Street • Montpelier
802-200-3854
By Laura Johnson
Extension Pollinator Support Specialist
University of Vermont
Wild bees are important pollinators for our
crops, gardens and wild plants. In Vermont
there are over 350 types of wild bees, including
17 different species of bumblebees.
Bumblebees are efficient pollinators that
are especially important for spring crops,
such as early blooming berries and tree fruits.
But by late fall, a colony that may range in
size from 50-500 bees will have all died
except for a single new queen.
As with all bees, the queens depend on pollen,
nectar, clean water and safe nesting sites
for survival, all of which are limited resources
in our managed landscapes. In addition, there
is strong competition among species for these
resources.
Queen bees will be one of the first visitors
of spring crops, hungry after a long winter. To
help them survive the winter, here are some
things gardeners and landowners can do.
Leave blooms standing until the first hard
frost. To gain enough body mass for winter
survival, bees require a lot of pollen and nectar.
Leaving plants up as far into the fall as
possible, ideally until they are killed by frost,
provides a good source of both.
Slow the Spread of the Emerald Ash
Borer (EAB) in Montpelier
The Emerald Ash Borer
has been detected widely
throughout Montpelier. The
emerald ash borer (EAB) is
a 1/2-inch-long metallic
green beetle originally from
Asia that feeds on and burrows
in all species of North
American ash trees. It is
fatal to all types of Ash
trees, causing them to die
and become brittle and hazardous
to remove.
The City of Montpelier is
asking for your help to mitigate
the impact of EAB and slow the spread
of the infestation in Montpelier. They are
asking residents to take the following steps:
• Plan ahead, use the Homeowner’s Guide to
the Emerald Ash Borer from the Vermont
Urban and Community Forestry Program to
assess your trees and know your options.
• Reach out to a local arborist ASAP to
schedule removal or treatment of your ash
trees if necessary.
• If you need further assistance, reach out to
learn more about the turtles and to see some recently-hatched
baby turtles.”
Participants are asked to dress in layers of warm clothes
and to bring water, work gloves, a leaf rake, short-handled
tools such as trowels, and their own lunch. Families and kids
are welcome. The cleanup may run until 4:00 p.m., although
participants can choose how long to assist.
“This has turned into a very popular annual event for people
interested in conservation,” added Mikula. “We’re always
glad to see so many people care about wildlife.”
To get to North Hero State Park, follow Route 2 north past
Carry Bay in North Hero. Take a right on Lakeview Drive,
just before Route 2 swings west toward Alburgh. Follow
Lakeview Drive almost to the end until you reach the North
Hero State Park entrance sign on the left. Drive to the end of
the road always bearing right.
For more information, Toni at Toni.Mikula@vermont.gov.
This event is outdoors and there is enough space for social
distancing. Hand sanitizer will be provided. Some hand tools
will be provided but attendees are also encouraged to bring
their own.
To gain enough body mass for winter survival, bees require a lot of pollen and nectar so leaving plants

Helping Wild Bumblebee Queens Overwinter
• • •
Established rodent burrows are known
nesting sites for bumblebees. Maybe all those
voles tunneling through your landscape have
a saving grace?
Consider reduced mowing and avoid cutting
back ornamental bunch grasses. Don’t
rake up fallen leaves, and skip the winter
brush pile burn party. All these provide great
rodent burrow materials and locations where
bumblebee queens can nest during winter
months.
Man-made structures can also become wild
habitat. Whether it’s your 1800s stone wall
reminiscent of New England sheep farming,
an old foundation or your new $30,000 retaining
wall, each provides protective cracks and
crevices where bumblebees can find shelter.
Consider conserving historical structures
on your land. Or cultivate new habitat by taking
rocks picked from your property to make
a rock pile where bumblebee queens can nest
as they enter diapause, a state of dormancy,
for the winter.
Offering pollen, nectar and water sources
late into the fall and abundant and diverse
undisturbed shelters for nests will help ensure
each queen’s survival and early season pollination
services next spring.
the City’s EAB assistance
program at EAB@montpelier-vt.org.
They can help
you assess your trees, provide
you with a list of arborists,
and answer any other
EAB-related questions. This
program is provided by the
Montpelier Tree Board in
collaboration with the Parks
& Trees Department.
The City of Montpelier
Tree Warden, Alec
Ellsworth, says homeowners
have three things they
can do to take immediate action to mitigate
their risk of an EAB infestation:
• Treat the tree every 2-3 years with a trunk
injection.
• Remove the tree pre-emptively before
infestation.
• Let the tree die and fall where it may.
“It’s important people know to reach out to
our team if they need help,” Ellsworth says.
“A team member will provide a brief consultation
to follow up on these reports.”

PET OF THE WEEK
Louie is a middle-aged gentleman who came to CVHS
with some special needs. He seeks a quiet, library setting
home with a feline experience owner who can help him
with some long-term medical issues. He loves head
scratches, daydreaming and lap sitting while watching tv.
He would prefer to live with adults only; no children or
ram-bunctious dogs. He is a hyperthyroid cat who already
has had a thyroidectomy, so he does not require any
medication or special food.
All adoptions are done by a phone

* Necklace chains that
have turned dark due to
oils in your skin can be
washed in warm water
with a dab of shampoo
mixed in. Also, keep your
old earring backs -- they might fit a different
pair if one gets lost! -- M.F. in Washington
* To freshen the color of carpets (and destroy
moth larvae or flea eggs), liberally sprinkle
salt on them before vacuuming. I use a
cleaned out Parmesan cheese container for
this. It works very well. -- J.K. in Pennsylvania
* To clean the glass inside your oven door,
use the stovetop cleaner for your glass
stovetop. -- V.P. in Florida
* Use cold, salted water to defrost a chicken
for roasting. You will have very flavorful and
moist meat. -- E.D. in Kansas
* Save plastic lidded containers from the
kitchen. Cover with colorful duct tape, and
they can be used as storage or even as gift
wrapping.
* Disposable razors can be used to remove
burrs from sweaters or wool slacks. Just be
sure to keep it out of the reach of children.

Tips for first-time electric car buyers
Electric vehicles are widely
touted as the vehicles of
the future. Despite the growing
availability of such cars
in the present day, for many
drivers EVs remain a novelty.
That means buying an EV for
the first time is a wholly new
and unique experience.
Tesla EVs might be the
most visible electric cars
on the road today, but most
major auto manufacturers,
including Nissan and Chevrolet,
produce EVs as well.
That means auto buyers have more EV options
now than ever before, which can make
the process of buying such a car more exciting,
but also more difficult. Narrowing down
a growing number of options may not come
easy to first-time EV buyers, who can keep
these tips in mind as they begin this exciting
journey.
• Get an idea of the accessibility of charging
stations around your home. The number
of public charging stations is on the rise,
but there’s still a lot of work to be done in
this area. In fact, research from McKinsey
& Company indicates that nearly half of
consumers in the United States indicate that
battery or charging issues are their foremost
concerns about buying EVs. The automotive
resource Auto Trader notes that most EVs
have enough battery range to cover more than
the average daily commute in America. But
drivers who hope to use their EVs as their everyday
cars that take them to work and help
them run errands and get around town should
confirm there are enough public charging stations
to make that possible.
• Look into subsidies. The Office of Energy
Efficiency & Renewable Energy notes that
all-electric and plug-in hybrid cars purchased
new in or after 2010 may eligible for a federal
income tax credit that could be as high as
$7,500. State and/or local incentives also may

Credit repair companies make

federal law forbids credit repair
companies from collecting
money before they provide
their service. TIP: If you have

apply. The Canadian Automobile Association
reports that the Government of Canada
offers point-of-sale incentives of as much as
$5,000 for drivers who buy or lease an EV.
These subsidies can help bring the cost of EV
ownership down by a significant amount and
are worth exploring as drivers decide which
electric car or truck to buy.
• Consider your parking situation. Homeowners
who own single-family homes with
a garage that can accommodate at least one
vehicle can easily charge their EVs so long as
they clear space in the garage where the car
can be parked. Auto Trader notes that some
garages may need to be upgraded with a level
two charger, and that can be expensive. Drivers
who must park their EVs outdoors overnight
should know that this, too, may require
some additional funds for electric vehicle
service equipment (EVSE). Local building
codes may govern the installation of such
equipment, which is best performed by an
electrician. These are some additional costs
of EV ownership that first-time buyers must
consider and research before they switch to an
electric car or truck.
EVs may become the new normal over the
next several decades. But before that day arrives,
first-time EV buyers must consider
a host of factors as they shop around for an
electric car or truck.

The Vermont Community Foundation’s Insight Hub
Publishes Brief on How Philanthropy Can Expand
Access to Homeownership
The Vermont Community
Foundation’s Insight Hub, its
research-driven arm focused
on providing insight to inform
charitable giving, has published
a brief on how charitable
individuals can use their giving
to expand access to homeownership
for middle income Vermonters.
The Insight Hub offers
webinars, events, articles,
videos, briefs, and peer-to-peer
experiences that help philanthropists
understand where
their giving can make a difference.
Vermont needs additional
housing of all types. An important
piece of the puzzle is the
creation of homeownership opportunities
for the missing middle—buyers
who don’t qualify
for income-restricted housing
programs but can’t afford market-rate
homes. Philanthropy
can help preserve Vermont’s
high homeownership rate with
strategies that target middle income
buyers.

FALL 2022
Fall Colors Near Peak Display In the Higher Elevations
With shorter days and cooler nighttime temperatures,
fall has arrived, ushering in one of nature’s most magnificent
seasons. In Vermont, on the Green Mountain National
Forest (GMNF), fall colors are expected to be most
vibrant during the next couple of weeks in the higher
elevations.
“This is a special time for our residents, our visitors,
and our forest. We have already seen a lot of vibrant color
in the higher elevations and expect that leaves will be near
peak in some of the higher elevations this weekend and
next,” said John Sinclair, Forest Supervisor for the Green
Mountain and Finger Lakes National Forests. Sinclair also
expects that there will be an influx of local and visitor
traffic in the coming weeks and is encouraging motorists
to be mindful of where they park and to use extra caution
when driving and recreating on the forest.
The GMNF is one of the more heavily recreated national
forests in the nation, serving between 3 and 4 million
visitors per year. Located within less than a day’s drive of

more than 70 million people, the forest serves a wide
variety of outdoor enthusiasts – each contributing significantly
to our local communities and the overall economy.
In addition to foliage viewing, other recreational activities
on the forest include: camping, hunting, fishing, horseback
riding, snowmobiling, hiking, mountain biking,
alpine and cross-country skiing. Like many tourist destinations,
the GMNF is a major contributor to local economies
and has been recognized as having some of the
nation’s most brilliant foliage viewsheds. The New
England area alone receives an estimated $8 billion annually
in local revenues from fall visitors, who come from
all over the world to see stunning mountainsides bathed in
brilliant reds and oranges, mixed with stately evergreens.
Beginning each September, the Forest Service tracks
the progress of fall color and is once again offering the
public a website that can be visited for foliage updates,
scenic hotspots, and routes to take for peak viewing of fall
colors on national forests across the region: Fall Color
Report: www.fs.usda.gov/detail/r9/recreation/?cid=stelpr
db5327251.
The mission of the U.S. Forest Service is to sustain the
health, diversity and productivity of the nation’s forests
and grasslands to meet the needs of present and future
generations. The agency manages 193 million acres of
public land, provides assistance to state and private landowners,
and maintains the largest forestry research organization
in the world. Public lands the Forest Service
manages contribute more than $13 billion to the economy
each year through visitor spending alone. Those same
lands provide 20 percent of the nation’s clean water supply,
a value estimated at $7.2 billion per year. The agency
has either a direct or indirect role in stewardship of about
80 percent of the 850 million forested acres within the
U.S., of which 100 million acres are urban forests where
most Americans live.
