Thanksgiving Boot Camp at Water Fresh Farm
Brine
or deep-fried? Pecan or apple? Chestnut or sausage? Thanksgiving
menu choices are endless – and confusing. This year, Waterfresh
Farm in
Hopkinton, Massachusetts, has a solution. And delicious answers. On Saturday, November 2nd, from 1-3pm,
Water Fresh Farm Executive Chef Russell Thiel will demystify your
menu --and add his own unique suggestions with ideas for appetizers,
side dishes, and the absolute best way to cook a turkey. Want to wow
at Aunt Mabel’s? Chef Thiel has you covered. And--bring your
appetite: There will be plenty of free samples from Water Fresh
Farm’s own Thanksgiving menu, as well as wine tastings. The tasting is part of a series of events
that Water Fresh Farm (151 Hayden Rowe Street, Hopkinton,
Massachusetts) is planning as the holiday season gets underway. Water Fresh Farm has been a fixture in the
Hopkinton community for more than fifteen years, growing hydroponic
produce sold at some of the finest grocery stores in Massachusetts.
The tomatoes, cucumbers, and other items grown in the warm and
inviting greenhouse are completely pesticide free. Building on the
success of their farm-to-table operation, last year, owners Jeff
Barton and Phil Todaro decided to expand into a retail market
selling locally grown items as well as freshly made meals utilizing
local ingredients. The Marketplace, located at 151 Hayden
Rowe Street in Hopkinton, Massachusetts, is a sanctuary for fresh
locally grown and produced dairy, cheese, baked goods, fruits,
vegetables and meals for those who want the unforgettable taste that

Keyhole View
October 27, 2013 — The preserved,
historical Lake Whitehall Gatehouse on Highland Street can be
seen through a keyhole view from the "S" turn on Wood Street in
Woodville. The phrase stems from so-called skeleton keys from
long ago, which fit into key receptacles that went all of the
way through to the other side, allowing a 3 year-old child a
perfect view into the next room.

Hunting Season Information
Hopkinton has a wealth of beautiful open spaces and the Trails Club encourages everyone to get out and use them. When we go, we always take precautions to ensure our hikes are safe and enjoyable. We bring maps and water, wear appropriate clothes and footwear, and there's always at least one first aid kit in someone's pack.
Autumn is a particularly wonderful time to be out in the woods. The air is cool and the color of the changing leaves can be spectacular. Extra caution is needed at this time of year however. This is deer hunting season and many of the areas we love to explore in Hopkinton are open for hunting.
There are three hunting seasons for deer in Massachusetts. The 2013 dates are:
You can still enjoy the woods during this time if you use common sense and take a few precautions:

Invasive October 27, 2013 — Winged Euonymus is an attractive ornamental shrub that has been very popular in New England for several decades. However, its ability to self-propagate, and its condition of not having any predators, makes it invasive. It can take over wide areas. Above, a winged euonymus in the foreground is a visual introduction to an entire forest floor of the plants in the background across the Sudbury River near the Southborough Rod and Gun Club in Hopkinton, where it has replaced native species. |

Witches of East Hopkinton October 26, 2013 — A group of pagan worshipers from the Society of Elder Faiths met in East Hopkinton to celebrate Samhain, the end of the harvesting season and the coming of winter. Although they gathered to celebrate their holiday in Hopkinton, it was for the hall rental and the access to trails, where they said their ritual words and practiced their craft. President of the group, Debbie Fields Popham, explained the system as being ancient beliefs newly reformulated. "Gerald Gardner re-founded Witchcraft in the 1950s as a modern religion based on ancient beliefs," she said. Further reading identifies Gardner as the "Father of Wicca." Referring to a basket of acorns in front of him, Hunter Heinlen, photo above, said they are seeds of the oak tree, which represents wisdom. They would be given to people in the woods behind the hall on trails lighted by lanterns and refreshed by the subtle scent of the burning of quality incense. Their website is www.ElderFaiths.org |

ZAC Continues to Ponder Medical
Marijuana Facilities Meeting on October 28, 2013, 7:00 pm October 25, 2013 — The Zoning Advisory Committee, a group that recommends zoning changes to the Planning Board but has no authority of its own — except that many of its members serve on the Planning Board as well or are former Planning Board members — will be taking up the question of zoning for registered marijuana dispensaries that want to locate in Hopkinton. One of the points the committee will cover is approving the distance from the following categories of uses:
• Schools
One proposal being moved forward as illustrated by the dashed red circles in the map above, is modeled after state guidelines, and would create a 500' buffer around the protected uses. Another issue the committee has considered, but hasn't gotten much traction, is a federal buffer that would create a 1,000' distance from some protected uses for controlled substances. The federal government has not decriminalized the dispensing of medical marijuana, but states that have are proceeding as if their laws supersede federal law. That is not always the case, and the integration of schools in the South is a prime example. But it appears the federal government has not moved against any states that have approved the concept. ZAC meets Monday at 7:00 pm at Town all in Room 211. |
