John and Barbara Tuttle of Northwood wish to announce the marriage of their daughter Kathleen A. to Victor R. Follansbee, Jr., son of Janice and Victor R. Follansbee, Sr. of Stratham. The marriage was held on September 4 at 3 p.m. at the James Tuttle Farm in Nottingham. Friends and family attended the wedding ceremony, and reception which immediately followed. The couple will reside in Strafford.

Come and join friends and neighbors at the final outdoor Northwood Farmers Market of the season on Thursday, October 7, from 3 to 6 at our regular site on the corner of Rts. 4, 202, 9, and 43. There’s still plenty of local products and produce available, so do your part to support local agriculture by stocking up on winter squash, potatoes, apples, honey, baked goods, soap and lotions, gourmet mushrooms, and much more, all from local farmers.

And mark your calendars – as we did last year, the Northwood Farmers Market will move indoors to the Masonic Lodge at the same site, and we’ll commence weekly indoor markets on Saturday mornings, beginning on October 16 from 9 to noon and continuing until the Holidays. See you at the Market!

National Precipitation Network

The national precipitation network http://www.cocorahs.org/ has come a long way this year! As I write, the national water year has ended - it runs from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30. This year CoCoRaHS is able to compile for the first time reports from all the stations, which are volunteer-run, that are reporting regularly, and that information will be available soon to us volunteers. We will check on our reports, fill in any missing information we can (it’s easy to forget to report when there is no precipitation and one is in a hurry, but I don’t think I missed any rain or snow in the past year). I will keep you all updated.

My task now is to find some more volunteers in our area. If any of you are interested you can take a look at the website http://www.cocorahs.org/, where all the information you need can be found. If you want more personal observations from a volunteer please e-mail me at [email protected] and I will be glad to share my experiences with you. It’s a small but very important task, another of the many things that we as individuals can do as part of a wider effort and make a big difference!

See you at the rain gauge!
