A Table for Their Toils

Durham resident Noah Ventola recently donated an 'environmentally friendly' table to Wesleyan University's student-farmers, who sell their organic produce at Middletown's North End Farmers' Market every Friday.

 

Noah Ventola was selling his handcrafted birdhouses at Middletown's North End Farmers' Market earlier this month when he happened to meet a group of student-farmers from Wesleyan University.

Ventola, a Durham resident, offered to build the farmers a table to display their organic produce grown at the school's Long Lane Farm.

The table — made from old growth pine and repurposed from a mill in Oxford — was delivered this week.

Check back with Patch next week for a story about Ventola's new business: Ultimate Kids! You can read more about Wesleyan's Long Lane Farm here.

I would suggest to parents to donate a book to the classroom or school library in their child's nameRead More to celebrate the child's birthday, or other significant event, instead of sending in cupcakes or other sweets.
