Her portraits invite us to consider empathy\, labor\, vulnerability\, and our relationships with other species. \nGeorge Shenk\, community activist\, experimental farmer\, writer\, and creative\, explores the human labor of sustaining small farms and the vital connections between land\, food\, animals\, and community. \nTogether\, their work asks us to reconsider how we value land\, labor\, food\, and life and reminds us that ecological health and community well-being are deeply connected.

This may include the loss of a loved one\, chronic or terminal illness\, the loss of a beloved pet\, changing stages of life\, environmental or global grief\, and the many other visible and invisible losses we experience throughout our lives. \nAnd your grief doesn’t have to be recent to belong here. Grief stays with us throughout our lives; it simply changes shape as time passes. Sometimes it is close to the surface\, and sometimes it quietly surprises us. There is room for all of it. \nAll grief is valid. All grief is welcome. \n📍 Location: Enter through the back door and take the stairs or elevator to the 2nd floor. We’ll gather in the conference room. \n⌚ Frequency: Every 2nd Wednesday of the month \n💛 Want monthly reminders and reflections on grief?\nEmail Rachel at rachel@wherethelovelies.com to join the email list.

That’s the idea behind the MRV Women in Business “Speed Dating” networking event\, returning December 3 at the 1824 House Inn & Barn. \n\n5:30 Start – Grab a beverage and a snack\n6:00 Program starts\n7:00 Continue to mingle with new connections\nBring your business cards\, QR codes or whatever format you use to follow-up. Have your Instagram and Facebook link handy.\nLet’s connect!\n\nFor planning purposes an RSVP is requested\, but not required (for those who can join us at the last minute). Send an email to wibadmin@madrivervalley.com to RSVP \nThink of it as a friendly way to move beyond familiar faces and meet more of the women working throughout our community. Through a series of brief\, rotating conversations\, participants introduce themselves\, share what they do and learn about one another’s work\, interests and challenges. \nThe format takes some of the awkwardness out of networking. You don’t have to figure out how to enter a conversation or spend the evening hoping to meet the right person. Each rotation offers a fresh introduction and a chance to find common ground. \nThe goal is simple: start relationships that can grow beyond the evening. You might discover a potential collaborator\, a helpful resource\, a future customer or someone who understands the challenges you’re navigating. Bring your curiosity\, a brief introduction and a willingness to listen. No polished sales pitch required. \nConnections That Strengthen Our Community\nSince the Mad River Valley Chamber of Commerce launched MRV Women in Business in the winter of 2021\, the initiative has become a valuable part of our work to connect and support the local business community. \nThese gatherings bring together business owners\, employees\, independent professionals and community leaders whose paths might not otherwise cross. They also help the Chamber hear new perspectives and involve more people in our collective work. \nThat’s an important part of what Chamber membership supports: opportunities to build relationships\, exchange ideas and work together to strengthen the Valley. In a small community\, a simple introduction can open unexpected doors. \nYou don’t have to own a business or have attended a previous gathering to participate. Whether you’re new to the Valley\, starting something new or looking to expand your circle\, we hope you’ll join us. \nSave the date: December 3 at the 1824 House Inn & Barn.\nWatch for event times and registration details soon.

This group offers a gentle\, welcoming space to come as you are\, connect with others\, and spend time with whatever grief you may be carrying. \nRachel will gently facilitate the gathering\, offering a little structure and plenty of room to breathe. You’re invited to share\, listen\, reflect\, or simply be present. There is no right way to grieve\, and there is no expectation that you have to speak. \nAll kinds of grief are welcome here. This may include the loss of a loved one\, chronic or terminal illness\, the loss of a beloved pet\, changing stages of life\, environmental or global grief\, and the many other visible and invisible losses we experience throughout our lives. \nAnd your grief doesn’t have to be recent to belong here. Grief stays with us throughout our lives; it simply changes shape as time passes. Sometimes it is close to the surface\, and sometimes it quietly surprises us. There is room for all of it. \nAll grief is valid. All grief is welcome. \n📍 Location: Enter through the back door and take the stairs or elevator to the 2nd floor. We’ll gather in the conference room. \n⌚ Frequency: Every 2nd Wednesday of the month \n💛 Want monthly reminders and reflections on grief?\nEmail Rachel at rachel@wherethelovelies.com to join the email list.

In addition to many end-of-school year activities\, travel and school breaks\, June 1 marked the beginning of Atlantic hurricane season ─ a reminder that severe weather can also quickly disrupt the ability to donate in affected areas and potentially delay or cancel blood drives. \nPower Red: A Power Red donation collects the red cells but returns most of the plasma and platelets to the donor. These donors must meet specific eligibility requirements and have type A Neg\, B Neg\, or O blood. \n\n\nBlood: The most common type of donation\, during which approximately a pint of ‘whole blood’ is given.
