Join the New Hampshire Music Festival and PAREI for an afternoon of music, community, and fresh local flavor to celebrate our love of music and Local Foods Plymouth's 20th anniversary. From 3:30-4:30pm, the NHMF Brass Quintet -- featuring Bob Marlatt, Grace O’Connell, Wiff Rudd, David Loucky, and Don Robinson -- will perform a Music in the Mountains concert. Please bring a blanket or chairs to sit and listen, and join us for some celebratory anniversary cake and drinks during the concert! Have an old clarinet or trumpet sitting in your closet? At this event, NHMF will also be accepting used band or orchestral instruments (no pianos) to support our Lonely Instruments in Need of Kids (L.I.N.K.) which matches instruments with local kids who want to learn to play. We look forward to seeing you at this special event to listen to some incredible music, drop off your gently used instruments, pick up your virtual market order, and celebrate together!

Join us under the full moon for a community picnic! Bring a cozy blanket or chair and your favorite dinner in a basket for a casual, relaxing evening of great food and community conversation.  While you’re there, you’ll have the option to paint our rain barrel at the pavilion, learn about our Solar Shares expansion, and hear about our solar sheep grazing efforts. To keep the evening rolling, desserts will be provided. Whether you're looking to meet new neighbors, unwind under the stars, or pick up a new eco-friendly skill, this is the perfect night out.

In all the ways we approach climate resiliency, end-of-life practices are often overlooked despite their significant carbon output and use of natural resources. NH's first independent natural burial cemetery, Oliverian Everlasting Burial Ground, addresses conservation of intrinsically valuable land while providing space for environmentally responsible after-death disposition.  Located in Benton Flats, Oliverian Everlasting welcomes all who are looking for a place to rest in nature. Offering natural burials—simple, authentic, affordable—on 28.9 acres of woodland, stream, and meadow that abut the White Mountain National Forest and State of New Hampshire and other conserved land, an essential part of the area's ecological picture. Many PAREI members have been part of this journey to create New Hampshire's first natural burial cemetery, and we hope that others will become involved. Join us for a tour of the land where representatives will share the vision for its future use as a burial ground, natural sanctuary, and recreational destination.
