Towns & Leahy Mercantile and Deli Grand Social Event!

Three months and one day after we first opened our doors in the historic P.G Towns General Store building of downtown Douro, we’d like to celebrate all of the grand things that have happened thus far inside and out on the front porch of the Mercantile, by continuing with more of it! Come and join us. Socialize with some of the many Peterborough County producers that we are working with. Taste a few of the delicious ingredients we have to offer, including fresh cob on the corn from Dorisdale Farm in Keene. Enjoy music and watching the world go by from our front porch. Whether it be your first or fiftieth time in the door, all are welcome. See you here!

By the Bushel Community Food Co-operative Open House

By the Bushel Community Food Cooperative is hosting a free open house to allow non members a chance to see the freshness, variety and quality of the produce supplied by our wonderful, local, sustainable growers.  Come out and talk to staff and member volunteers, ask questions and enjoy seasonal snacks and drinks.  This is a great time to become a member or sign up for a seasonal produce basket.
