On Monday, March 16th, at 3:30 p.m. at Donald P. Sutherland Elementary School you can enjoy a program entitled “Tales of Our Heritage Along the Hudson.” A dozen cookies is twelve, but a bakers’ dozen is thirteen. Why? The answer has to do with the Dutch and the town of Beaverwick. Don’t know where Beaverwick is? The answer to this question and more will be answered by Storyteller Nancy Marie Payne.
ThIS program is sponsored by the Nassau Library and made possible, in part, through COMMUNITY ART$ GRANTS, the State and Local Partnership Program of the New York State Council on the Arts and the Arts Center of the Capital Region.
The first planning meeting to organize a Nassau Community Food Compact weekly market will be held at the Nassau Library, Tuesday evening, March 24th, beginning at 7:00 p.m. This planning meeting follows a successful introductory program on the Compact held on March 10th. Approximately 40 people attended the earlier meeting, and there was overwhelming support for going forward with plans to start the Nassau market. The Community Food Compact is a community agriculture cooperative covering Northern Columbia and Southern Rennselaer Counties, which will have weekly online ordering and a delivery route to take foods from area farms to community sites, like the one being formed in Nassau.
The Nassau meeting on March 24th will discuss how to search for a site for the Nassau market. Plans will also be made to contact numerous people and groups in Nassau about the program, including area farmers, agricultural groups, nutritionists and chefs. Anyone interested is welcome to attend. A brief period at the beginning of the meeting will be devoted to providing literature and a short overview of the program for newcomers.
