New to Southern Vermont

We finally landed on Vermont soil and are so happy to be here. We just moved into our home in Putney and are just beginning the process of unpacking and getting to know our area. Glad to be here and looking forward to meeting people and getting out more in our local area.

    You did it!

    Congratulations and Welcome! It's not usually this rainy here, honest.

    Putney is such a sweet little town. I'm sure you've been to the co-op?
    That'll probably end up being a good, ultra-local community resource.

    Welcome! You picked a beautiful place to live... lots of great people... many, many gifted and talented artists, healers, general all around good people. I live in Brattleboro. If you need to network, contact me and let me know what your interests are and I'll point you in the right direction.

        Thanks for the warm welcome everyone! We've been to both the Putney and Brattleboro Co-Ops and the bookstores and several coffee shops. My daughter is signed up for a few different summer camps and I think I'll hit the Wed. morning Putney playgroup for my son whose still far too little for camps.

          I also just moved to Putney. :-) I usually work in the Putney Co-op on Fridays. Come in and see me.
          Also, Monday night African Dance Class in Bratt. is great...I hold a dark moon/ women's circle every dark moon if you are interested...and Dance Express is the 1st and 3rd Saturdays and it is a fun, free style dance jam with great DJ's.
          Also, check out Soujourns in Westminster...an incredible healing center.
          Hope to meet you.

            Hey ShaUna- are you still hosting dark moon/womyn circles? I moved to Bennington last summer, and I am struggling to make connections with like minded womyn and men. If you are still conducting these gatherings, I would love to participate. Please contact me.

            I also will probably try the dance express thing you had mentioned- saw an advert for it in the Reformers calendar. Thanks for mentioning that.

            I did join the Brattleboro coop, and have been volunteering in hopes of starting to become familiar/friendly with people in this town, as my side of the mountains has not of yet presented me a way to meet many people. Any other ideas any body?

    I'm in Chester, VT. WE have the Moon Dog Cafe and Natural Food Store here in town. WHere are you coming from? Putney's very nice. I olike the drive through Dummerston. Check out the Putney Mt trail. nice walk ending in a great view. If you go to Westminister, Harlows is good for organic produce. Good luck

    I was going to welcome you to Putney but then I realized that your post was made a month before I moved to Putney myself. =) It certainly is a beautiful place here.
