Funny that Whit Aldrich and I don’t seem to know enough to quit while we are ahead.  He is back on the Selectboard, as I am on the School Board. – Lil

Dear Team Walpole,

Effective August 8, 2016 Selectman Joe Aldrich resigned from the Selectboard for personal reasons.  We thank Joe for his willingness service to the community and wish him all the best.

In accordance with RSA 669:63, the Selectboard has appointed Whit Aldrich to fill the vacancy effective August 11, 2016.  Whit will remain in this position until the March 2017 elections.  In 2017 an individual will be elected for two years to complete Joe’s unexpired term.

If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Selectboard office, Peggy or myself.

Steve Dalessio, Selectboard Chair

Are you craving Peaches, Blueberries & Raspberries?

Alyson’s Orchard will have PEACHES available starting today, July 30th.  Due to the extreme cold temperatures this past February Alyson’s, as well as many other orchards in New England, suffered a total peach crop loss. The peaches that we will have available will be from Pennsylvania.

Don’t forget about our $2.00/ lb. PYO Blueberry special!! The bushes are loaded and it’s easy picking!  PYO Raspberries are also still available this weekend.

Farm stand hours are 9am-5pm 7 days a week.

Don’t forget, you can also click the BlogRoll on The Walpolean Home Page and get there as well. – Lil
