It is with a heavy heart that we write this. This past year a great customer of ours husband unexpectedly passed away. Because of this she is now forced to let go of her alpaca breeding farm dream. She has some wonderful alpacas available. Please PM me if you are interested in learning more about her animals. The bloodlines are from our show herd and the alpacas are living on our farm. Two wonderful breeding females, two ribbon winning males and one yearling male never shown. A caring farm is a must as she hates to see them go. Feel free to share if you have a fellow breeder that may be interested.

Thank you Jessica O'Donnell for not only training and riding Hinter Fell Pony Stallion but loving him as if he were your own. FEI Pre St George, I can't believe it. I remember the day we picked him up and said "you never know, some day he could be our FEI pony", well today is that day!! So proud and grateful! Ann Fiore

We did it!!! Our first FEI Pre St George and I couldn't be more proud of you. Hard work, dedication, love and trust is what went into making this happen. You are a rock star and such a pleasure to train and have in my life. Love your other half Jessica

To the editor: We urge the community to attend this Mondays hearing at Town Hall in regards to special use events at our local farms. It’s wonderful that our farmers in Portsmouth have done such a nice job restoring and preserving...

Did you know carrots were originally purple, and occasionally, yellow and white? In the late 16th century, Dutch farmers used mutant strains of the heirloom carrot, by crossing yellow and white ones, which gradually developed the common sweet orange carrot we have today.

The purple pigment in heirloom carrots is anthocyanin. Anthocyanins are a type of flavonoid, which give many fruits and vegetables their deep rich colours. They have anti-oxidant effects, and may also have anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, and even cancer-preventing effects.

Some think the reason the orange carrot became so popular in the Netherlands was in tribute to the emblem of the House of Orange and the struggle for Dutch independence. While this is possible, it also might have just been because orange carrots are sweeter and often more plump.
