J.D. McCliment's Pub is now open for Brunch on both Saturday and Sunday! We will be serving brunch from 10am till 2pm each day,and staying open straight thru dinner, till closing. We offer a menu style brunch .... featuring Eggs Benedict, Monte Cristo's, French Toast, and 'any style" Eggs. Our Bacon and Ham are smoked "in house" and are nitrate free, and our sausage is Vermont all Natural. So join us, on a sunny summer day out on the deck, or a lazy rainy morning in the tavern ... where you can enjoy a homemade brunch, (cooked for you!), and maybe an imbiber or two to go with it!

iPutney has an extensive collection of links to Putney web sites. To find them, click on “Putney Links” just under the iPutney logo at the top of the screen.

It’s quite a collection, but there must be many more that are not yet listed. If you live or work in Putney and maintain a web site, we’d love to add a link to your site. To be listed, please go to “Putney Links” and then click on “Add A Link” at the bottom of the list. We will review it and then add all appropriate links to the site within a few days.

Come down and enjoy a yummy vegetarian burrito with the works, we aim to please. We are located in Harmony parking lot of Brattleboro, we are still working on a schedule but Thur. thru Sat. 12pm-until bars close is what we are going to try. We are also at the Wednesday Farmers market from 11:30am-3pm.
See you there.
We are available for catering parties as well.
Thank you,
Jennifer

Hi all,

The following is excerpted from "The Extravagant Gesture: Nature, Design and the Transformation of Human Industry" by William McDonough and Michael Braungart, authors of the 2001 sustainability classic CRADLE TO CRADLE.

I just thought it might fire some imaginations, particularly in the wake of the fire at the General Store.

Happy daydreaming,
Carol Greenhouse

I wanted to write to say how sad I am to be leaving Putney. I have lived here for ten years. Having faced the fact that we cannot afford to keep living here, we are leaving. I suppose the reasons why I love this town are why housing prices are out of reach. Everyone should have a main street with everything they need. From great used clothes at Swirl, to local produce that beats Brattleboro at the Putney Coop. I love the bad pizza at Village Pizza and an occasional greasy meal at the Diner. Walking to the Credit Union to do my banking. And the library. A great gang of friendly folks and a community gathering place bar none. So, I feel lucky to have had these ten years. I won't be far, but a few miles can seem like another planet.

5 Important Things You Never Knew Your Cell Phone Could Do
For all the Putney folks with cell phones (This can be printed and kept in your car, purse, and wallet. Good information to have with you.)

Here are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival.

Check out the things that you can do with it:

iPutney is a great place to swap information.
Recently I've run into several people who benefited from using iPutney.

One found a job following up on a lead posted on iPutney. Others rented their apartment or house. And yet another sold her woodstove --- using iPutney.com.

This is our collective website. Please use it in ways that enhance your life and the lives of those in the Putney community.

iPutney Hosts a Gathering for People Interested in the Web Site on Tuesday, February 5th at 6:00PM.

Join us at the Putney Public Library for a workshop/training/discussion of iPutney. We are hoping to have more people actively involved in our vibrant online newsletter. Please join us as we explore the possibilities of our community web site, brainstorm ways to get more people involved as regular contributors and learn about how to use the web site on our library's computers. Come to the Putney Library on Tuesday, February 5th at 6:00PM.
For more information contact Holly at hambat@sover.net

Would it be possible for us as a collective community to try to put together a list of recycling/reuse options or places that often need these donations on a regular basis?

This might be nice for new folks in the community who don't know about freecycle.com, swapday at the dump, or the recycling behind the town hall.

Thanks!

We’ve added a new section to iPutney called Regional News. Now you can read regional news that has been submitted to iPutney by clicking on the Regional News link towards the upper left side of each screen.

As you know, iPutney focuses on Putney news and events held here in Putney. This is a good thing and we don’t intend to change this. But we all leave Putney (at least occasionally). The new regional section may help keep you informed about the wider Windham County community (Brattleboro, Dummerston, Saxtons River, Bellows Falls, etc.).

Unlike Putney news, Regional News pieces will not automatically show on the iPutney home page. To read regional news, you must click on the Regional News link. This is the only way to see these stories.

If your piece is about Putney, or people from Putney, be sure the word PUTNEY is included in the text so we know to put it on the iPutney.com home page.
