Well, it looks like we have three contested races in Fairhaven this year (see page 4). Select Board has six people running for three seats. No more griping that people don’t want to run or serve in office. Board of Health is also contested, and Planning Board. I’m happy to say there are a couple… [Read More]
Letter: Support Powers
Support Powers For Re-Election The move to a five-member Select Board gives Fairhaven an incredible opportunity for forward movement, and we are all pretty jazzed about our choices in a race that is really starting to heat up. We get to choose THREE! Such richness. Which brings me to my point: I submit that we should… [Read More]

The great annual holly tree feed! So glad I got to see it. Every once in a while, I miss it. Hundreds of birds descend upon my magnificent holly tree and gobble up the berries. I can’t get enough of it. Luckily it happened on a Wednesday and I was able to take the time… [Read More]

Well, I haven’t watched it myself yet, but it sounds like the BPW meeting (see page 19) was absolutely popcorn-worthy. Really…can you say “I changed my mind?” That was a doozy of a storm wasn’t it? Shoveling was no fun, that’s for sure. Thank you to my neighbors who came by with their snowblowers. I… [Read More]

Brrr…it’s cold out there. Again. I suppose you skiers will like it, but…how can you DO that? My little dog just turns tail and runs right back in the house. He’s a smaht dog. Anyway, it looks like this batch of cold air won’t last either. I hope we get one picture of the marsh… [Read More]
From the editor 1/13/22
Brrr….it’s freezing out there! YIKES. My little wood stove is cranking and it’s still cold in there. The dog is all wrapped up in his blankets. It was cold enough this week to freeze up the marshes, but, alas, the temperature won’t stay that way long enough (see page 12). I got out there to… [Read More]
