Farmers Market Moves to Shaker
Museum
The
Enfield Village Association is grateful to Martha Doelle at the
Shaker Museum who was willing to take over
as the market manager. The market will be on Wednesdays from 4 – 7 pm
from July 1st to Oct. 7th. (The later time will help
those working folks get to the market
before it closes!) Most of your favorite vendors will be back, plus some
new ones. In case of rain the market will be held inside in the Stone
Mill Building. Lovely! We hope you will all continue to support this
market and enjoy quality locally produced food and crafts. For market
information contact the Enfield Shaker Museum at 632-4346 or e-mail
enfieldshakermuseum@yahoo.com.

all the volunteers and businesses who helped save this historic property
and we are pleased that Ken and Kimberly will complete the project and
restore this great old house.

Adopt a Lamp Post
Help to beautify Main Street by adding 2 decorative brackets, hanging
baskets, flowers and an electrical outlet for lighted greens and
decorations for the holidays. The cost for each lamp post is $450 and
you can “adopt” one in memory or in honor of a special person. We’ll be
happy to add a small plaque to your lamp post to note the honoree. Eight
have been adopted and there are just two left! The flower baskets along
Main Street in the Village have been glorious all summer! If you’d like to participate in this
beautification project please call the EVA office at 632-7197 or e-mail
at eva@interdial.net
Eagle Scouts Finish New Sign on NH
4A
Our thanks to Eagle Scout, Luke Burritt and the Scouts
for constructing the business sign on Route 4A. This was a year long
project that resulted in an attractive sign that lets people know there
is an Historic Enfield Village just across the lake and provides
wayfinding for businesses on Main Street as well as along on Route 4A.
Thank you, Luke!
