one with the miniature dunkeys. Dunkeys. I love monkeys. I know. They're so neat. I thought that would be cute. Yeah. I might. Yeah, because my my panel stay up. Yeah. All right.
Okay. Um, for PR, Jim Frell uh wrote up an article to submit. Um, I'm guessing he submitted it. I'm sorry. It was in the paper today. Yeah, it was in today's paper. Express. What is it about?
Yes. Thank you, please. About fair. Oh, about the Sorry, I was I was messaging Tim, so I didn't hear the beginning of it. Yeah, this is the VR that we're doing. Okay. So, then um I talked to Sean Turner
and Rob downstairs. They're going to coordinate having tables like we had last year because we don't all have tables. and um the trash cans,
the recycle cans, the liners. And Rob said, um if you want Mhm. he could have the golf cart and Melissa could drive it. Yeah. And I talked to her. Did you Okay, good. Yeah. Because I said I would see you Thursday night. Yeah. And he said you could have a pickup
truck if you wanted, too. Well, we don't really need a pickup truck, per se. Um because if they bring everything over, they're going to leave it in the gazebo like they did last year and then at the end of the day, we have to put it all back. Yeah. You know, and they'll take care of the
trash. All right. So, Ruy's put up the signs around town and John and John. And we've got the banner out front. Um, and we've submitted our application for
a permit to the board of health and received a response back and we paid the $150. And, um, as far as PR goes, um, they're going to put it up on the LED sign at
the transfer station. Um Missy is going to have the rec commission send out uh email blast to their whole email list and she's going to post it on Facebook again. Uh I didn't have any flyers made this year
um because we didn't really seem to use use them much last year. I mean there's one in the front door here. I don't know if you noticed. Um if you want more printed I can do that but we have to get them up pretty quickly. I don't know whether anybody notices and there's more really.
That's it. I'm not sure. Nothing at the library streaming on them or they don't on their outdoor sign. They only put libraries. Yeah, but they do put stuff on the on the lobby inside. Yes, you can put a flyer in there.
I figured everything they're doing this week is about their library event on Sunday. So, I didn't want to intrude too much on that because certainly I'm in support of that too at the library. But yeah, I can put a flyer in the in the
library. I'll print one up and put it at Sunshine. I think that gets a lot of exposure there. Okay. And then Facebook is probably the other really good spot, the town page. Yeah, it's on there. I have four town pages. You have to
refresh it though so it keeps coming up fresh on people's feeds. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And it is already on the town website. Yeah, I saw it. Yeah. So that's nice. I think that's really all we have for And I sent it in the um farm book buzz.
I sent the poster to ask and ask people to post it. Post it if they could or share it. Okay. All right. Um so that's the vendors. We talked about the signs, panic, publicity. Um, if Lydia's still
up for it, she and I are supposed to meet next week and, you know, mark out where everybody's going to be and then I'll She said she'd contact you. She said she'll be contacting you to do it. She's good. Okay. And then we'll um spray paint, you
know, the numbers like we did last year. It's If for some reason Lydia can't do it, just call me and I'll come help you. Okay. I got two guys. I didn't think about the stand with me if they'll come. They came last year. They just came and wrote clean with me, but they could come and help me. Absolutely.
They're really handy. Yeah. Yeah. Muscle. That's right. We can use muscle. Um because we've had that last year helping people get their tables and their popups set up and that sort of thing. I'll have a popup for the egg table and one for the recycling table.
Um we talked about trash, talked about tables. So, helpers. You said you're going to have I have two. You have two. My son is coming to help. My son son is coming to help like you did last year. And I contacted Soy last week and they said they would put the request in,
you know. Okay. This is for kids to help, right? But what about having a table? I don't know. They Yeah, it's still early. I know. Yeah, they're just getting settled in. So, I don't know. I got my nephew and maybe a possible
other kid. Okay. Can I go? Yeah. Gary has early enough related activities. I mean, if if you guys can all kind of get your
stuff set up um maybe a little bit before noon and then when the others start showing up, you'd be available to help. You know, like last year you did the set here and tell people where to go. Yeah. Yeah. And the we got to bring up signs really.
Yeah. Yeah. The saw horses, you know, putting them in place and moving them as we need to, keeping the traffic going, you know, just the vendors down that side. And they're going to close off this driveway for us, right?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, they'll put the saw horses there. You know, it'll be up to us to, you know, we we want to just keep all the vendors going through that way and coming back out and then coming around to park. So we don't have any accidents over
there like we almost did last year. It was close. Um so yeah. Um is there anything else that you can think of? Oh shirt please. If you have your shirt from last year
I can wear it. Okay. One. I don't have one. What size do you need, John? XL, please. XL. I bet we have one of those. There we go. Right on top. Thank you. Thank you.
And what that does, John, is it allows uh people to know who's in the adcom if they have questions or need help. The restrooms will be open. So, people want to know where the restrooms are, they're building.
Yeah. And you said you know where the water faucet is. Where is it? When you facing the door, it's to the left. It's just over there when you're coming in. Yeah. When you come in the front door, that there's one like All right.
It's right there. I think maybe a condenser or something is there, too. Okay. Oh, yeah. There is. Yeah. So, we'll just need to be a special key. All the just a regular on sticky thing that says water.
Well, as long as everybody that has animals knows where to get him in Maine for the next five weekends. Okay. Well, that eliminates that. So, I get an answer. Okay. Thank you. Yeah. You're welcome. Because he didn't respond. No. Tell me. I I'll get him.
All right. Okay. Is there anything else anybody can think of? I need one of these forms for the traveling cranberry guy. Okay. Cranberry. Yeah. to do that last week.
We've been a little bit, you know, you get a pass. So Jamie Neielen said um the farm across from
John the the one across which Rogers Korea. Yeah. Yeah. that they um they do be talks and stuff. She was going to look and ask about doing that. I said the commission was really interested in having somebody.
Yeah. Okay. Okay. All right. There's nothing else. Sean, I think that's that's you're going to bring the straw bales. I'll pick up the buckets and we'll have have them distributed around so people can take pictures of
the kids or whatever. It'll look like an egg bear. All right. The music still coming? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I talked to him a couple of times. Okay. You know, cuz I talked to he said he was coming. He's all excited.
He left. He had a great time. Oh, good. Well, they were really, really good. Yes, that violinist. Yes. Oh my goodness. Yeah. It's too bad she lives so far away cuz a violin. I'm looking for a teacher.
She's east, I think. Probably. I don't know. I don't know where he lives, but yeah. So, she's a little far away for lessons. Oh, you going to learn some uh bluegrass stuff, T? It's too bad. Huh? Learn some blueg grass stuff with you, Violet. I don't think so.
Violin. Violin. You don't have to play blue. They play all kinds of music. All righty. Um programs um
for the for the fall and winter. Um you do. She always says I don't need I mean you have a bunch of ideas already there. Yeah. We just have to follow up on everyone. Yeah. I don't I don't think we need to need to host another, right? And add a bunch more. Let's work
with what we've got. Yeah. It's been a rough day. Had a rough day at the farm. We're not We don't need any more death. No, we put the horse. Yeah. This morning. Yeah. Well, that's sad. Yeah.
One of my clients horses. Yeah. I hate that. That's the worst part about having animals. It sure is. Amen. I think the worst part of it is making the decision. Yes, it is. Yeah. Because we had it all scheduled and then he looked really good this morning and I
was like, "Oh god, I can't even look at it." I'm telling like I can't look out. Every time I took a dog to to the vet. Yeah. They rallied. Yeah. And that's what happened to him too. And to be honest, if he was mine, I would have cancelled it because he
looked good today. But they they were already in the mindset. They were prepared. That's right. And they've dumped a ton of money and you know, there has to be an end sometimes. And probably tomorrow anyway. It's just Right. Yeah. Right. And then if you're not in an emergency situation, the whole thing runs
smoothly. And that was that was my client's point. She's like, I would rather do it now when you know it it's nice and calm and it's not the middle of the night and everybody's frantic and you know
my daughter put her dog down and the agent who did it came to the house. Yeah. He was a vet. Yeah. Yeah. And she said it went so smoothly. Mhm. Yeah. It's a nice way to do it. Good livestock. The bed always comes to the house. Does my dog and cat too does any rabbit?
She has everything. Jean, is this the uh the Massachusetts Master Gardener Association? Is that the person you contacted? Through them. Through them. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. She was great. Yeah, she was. Yeah, she was good.
Yeah. Yeah. They've got a slew of of speakers. Okay. Their website. Yeah. Yeah. I saw that at Marshfield. I picked that up. Yeah. They they've got a ton of speakers and like the woman that we had, she's
she can talk on several different topics. I bet. Okay. So, early morning gentlemen. Yes. Long day. Um, I hear you. All right. So, um, let's get this figure out.
Oh, 225. Yeah, they're expensive. Yeah, but Yeah. What's your budget? We can afford one or two or Yeah. And um, you know, it'd be nice if they Oh, go ahead. Um, it would be nice if they
were a little better attended. I'm not sure how you know and it's tough to sometimes it's tough to take the it's hard to read the mood of the community and what what interests them. Now we had a really good turnout for the one she did at the
counciling. Yeah. So um you know I'm going to talk to Kathy about that um early winter seeding seed starting. In fact, I'll try to call her this week or next week after the fair. Yeah.
Okay. Uh I mean I I that's that was my suggestion. Uh some bee people would be nice if we could get something uh certainly if we could get some sort of a home gardening thing.
Someone to talk about that. Well, that's what the woman talked about last year. But I mean it wouldn't hurt to do it again. Yeah. Yeah, it was very well attended and she can take different um approaches and different aspects of it. But yeah, I
think if we do um the the winter gardening and bees, that would be really really Maybe we could get like the chicken talk. Everybody loves the chicken tucks. Yeah. Yeah.
This is how you kill a lot. There was Bring the rooster. Bring the rooster. I'll kill him. We'll have a hot plate in a radio with my wife's pet. You might be stuck out with
a phone out there. Um, all right. Anything else on uh agricultural programs? I think once we get past the fair, but I I do think we need to think about them and at least have some some ideas. Um, and it would
be nice if we knew if the people were actually will do that. Well, are they the ones that are coming to the gal that said is Jamie Neielson with the cows, she said that Oh, okay. that they whoever she works
for does be um talks. Oh, do you know the guy too? We're talking the same people again. Okay. Right. Yeah. Cuz you needed to know you you mentioned to us that you didn't have the conversation we had
with them. Right. So, do you need their number and do for who? Neielson. Neielson's the cow for the B people at Roger Carreras. customer careers because he the thing out last time we had a meeting and he got back said I'd like to
do something and they said but that's this other person which coincides coincides okay so they should be here she should be here Sunday I just didn't know what they you know maybe we could talk to her a little bit or at least Yeah because it was you that came up
with the name whatever it is something rock box name and then Okay, but anyway Thank you. I mean is what she said over there. Okay.
Yeah. All right. So, we can we don't need a solid commitment, but it would be nice just to at least Well, she sounded really positive. Okay. Well, we let's just go ahead and send this to her right now.
She already here with the cows. Oh, she with another table of bees and plastic beehives that a plexiglass and all that. Well, I gave her Jean's contact when she's talked about bringing other maybe doing a table with honey or or bringing um goats. I just sent her
your contact. Okay. And I haven't heard Okay. You have someone you said coming with bees. We have to know what they they seem to have programs. Yeah,
that's what we want presentation. All right. All right. Recruitment of new members. Okay. Poor horse. Moving on. Uh I keep plugging it in the B in the buzz every every time I send it out.
Thank you. I I saw the draft letter. That's fine. If we can, if we know the farms we want to send it to, sure. Well, that's it. I I I'm not sure how we can identify a new agricultural enterprises. I don't know which ones
need to um get any kind of permit from the town or, you know, who to coordinate that with. I should probably either check with the board of health or u building department because some of them it would be a zoning issue, I
think. Yeah. And I think a lot of people just go ahead and do it be. Yeah. But, you know, I think it's going to be kind of incumbent upon all of us. If we see a new a new enterprise, you know, um then we can send him that
letter which just really introduces us as the agricultural commission, invites them to to um come to our meetings and you know that we're here to help them. Yeah. Get them involved.
Yeah. Why not be What are they doing on on Elm Street going down the hill on the right? That big old house that's got all kinds of stuff happening in out front which
the tree guy go just almost so after the cemetery now you're going down the hill on the right hand side. Oh where Marabets used to go across from where Marabets. that Maritz is for sale. Yeah.
Piece of the property. It's 61A and um I believe Wildlands Trust is interested in I think the selectman we're going to discuss that Tuesday night to defer their right to first refusal to
Wildland's just I haven't watched the meeting so I don't know what they decided but yeah it's in um it's in their their daughter's name. Okay. But here he's not doing much
and he was having health problems. Yeah. Right. So, so as you're going down the hill right after the cemeteries at the top now you're going down on the right hand side. It's a big old house. A big white and there's there's fencing up and
little thing out front. You said you knew who that was. There's wood out there. It looks like I'm not sure. I keep thinking it's animal fencing, but I don't think it is. I think it might be produce or I I don't know. Are you talking about Sullivan? Um
I don't know. Clinton Sullivan. It's a big old farmhouse. Yeah, the treehouse. She is the tree tree guy. Um yeah, he when I talked to him a couple years ago, he did some work for
me and he is working towards having a big truck farm, I think, with a produce stand. Oh, so that would be he started out with that little fenced in area out front, but I don't think it was totally enclosed and he grew corn.
And I think he just had some visitors with four hooves that came and so it looks like he's made a bigger area but enclosed the whole area. And it just looks like something's happening to me when you said agricultural
because if you put um like Irish Spring Irish Spring around it'll keep them and it's not a big area. It'll keep them out. It should it gets rid of He's a tree guy. Oh, I don't know. Don't you can't tell him anything. Well, I don't know. I don't know. Are guys considered agriculture?
I would think so. Aberist, right? I mean, would that anything guy. But um he does a lot of Marklair guy. He's got his own sawmill going down there. That's a kind of cool
little business that's different. Yeah. I just don't know where he is with it right now. He has one of those. Um you're talking about the guy on Elm Street. This other guy with the sawmills down in the nook somewhere, right? Really? Yeah. Oh, yeah. We just bought a whole bunch of boards from him.
I gave a bunch of trees yesterday. You did? I paid to take them down. They're my wife. There you go. You're going to tell he's a Bruce. Yeah. Three bucks aboard. Wow. Can't beat it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Is that Michael Clair? Yeah. He just finished some work for me, too. Yeah. He took a tree down for us this summer, too. That through John's how we met him. And he said he had the saw mill. He saw that we had the 1x sixes, the rough cut, and
he's like, I make those. I think we were paying six bucks. And he's like, "I do it for three." We're like, "Oh, yeah." Exactly. We just bought 200 and something pizzas off of them. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. I I mean I mean that's an agricultural business
if you ask me, but it is. I think so. Yeah. I'm sure they would have it in agricultural school, right? You know, right? Yeah. Forest. Forest. an arborist.
Well, an arborist has to have different Yeah, they have to have a degree in certain things. Not that I think he's probably someone that wants to jump on the off the board, but someone we should um but you know, maybe you never know if
he'd want to do something for the I don't know if he has something he could set up a demo or whatever. It would be kind of cool, something different. put him next to Mike Okonnell who's using, you know, making the cutting board. Yeah. Bowls and that sort of thing. He said he
made a lot of the taps for 42nd. Oh, you know. Yeah. Half handles. Yeah. I'm I'm an Thank you. That's never just one. Deb, you're up. Um
I think we did most everything. I sent out another um barn book buzz plugging the fair and talking about it and um
I have it here. I got it. Okay. Um the problem down the nook with the chickens has been resolved. The roosters are gone. We still don't have a zoning enforcement officer, do we? Has anybody heard?
No. Um I understand that they've been doing interviews, but um I'm not aware that they've hired anybody yet. Uh animal control had a um chicken goat complaint out on um
Barnabas Mill and I went down and talked to them about it. And where's that? Oh, the grove. The grove. Yeah, the old Peters Grove somewhere down there. Yes. Further down, right? Is that right beside the Silver Lake
Sanctuary? Is that Barnabas? Was I? I thought it was on the other side, but I'm not. What's it called? Barnabas. What? Barnabas Mill Road. Mill Road. Yeah. So, I just went down talked to animal control and went over a few of
the points with the keeping of animals for them. So, they um should hopefully be able to resolve it. Do they have the Was it just not enough space for the animals? Oh, they're loose. Oh, they're loose. Hey, that's dangerous.
Oh. Um and probably not aware that there are regulations on the books. Okay. And so they were going to bring bring that out to them. Okay. The goats are loose, too. Just
I see. Well, don't go anywhere. I know. But there are coyotes and Oh, yeah. There was another another concern on main street for street on Main Street that I didn't know
that were there. Yeah, but I'll get out there with Chelsea. I'm thinking about what destruction they are. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Well, he
