Step Inside This Massachusetts General Store Where The Food Is Straight Out Of A Hallmark Movie

If New England charm had a physical address, it would probably be 1228 Russells Mills Road in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. Davoll’s General Store is the kind of place that makes you feel like the director of a feel-good movie decided to build a set, except everything here is completely real and the food is significantly better than anything you’d find on a film set.

Transformation Progresses at Century and Stuart Bogs

It’s not intuitive. When cranberry bogs are retired, repairing nature sometimes looks intrusive with big trucks and equipment on site. But it’s all very intentional: the water has been diverted for years and needs to find its way back to the flow that will benefit fish and wildlife and protect against flooding. And, left alone, invasive plants would overwhelm the former cranberry bogs. A clear design and workplan are necessary, and that often means moving mud with big trucks. You’ve seen that this fall at two projects: Stuart Bogs and Century Bogs.

Canton bank celebrates 135 years in the community

Canton Co-operative Bank is marking 135 years in Canton while recognizing employees and directors whose service stretches across decades. The bank was founded in 1891, according to a community announcement, and has continued operating under its original name. President and CEO Nick Maffeo, a Canton native, said its original mission focused on helping local residents buy homes. “In 1891, the first president of Canton Co-operative - Ephraim Thorndike - promised that Canton Co-operative would be the ‘easiest and safest place to borrow’ with the goal of helping local people get ‘homes, happiness and independence.’ Today we still help local people buy homes, and much more,” Maffeo said. Canton Co-operative is an independent mutual community bank rather than a stock bank. “Customers come first with us, not stockholders or Wall Street,” Maffeo said. Longtime Canton Co-operative employees recognized The bank is recognizing several current and former employees for their years of service. Deborah “Debby” Kreusch began working at Canton Co-operative in 1976 in a temporary summer teller position. Kreusch later served in several operational positions before becoming bank president in 1991. Kreusch served as president until 2014 and is now chair of the bank’s board of directors.
