1. Well, it says the retail store

but it specifies the retail store in Norwich, VT. Norwich is where the plant is located. It must be a store within the plant.

I used to live right nearby (now I'm about 90 minutes away). You can sign up for classes there - they have classes on all sorts of breadmaking - often just one-day/afternoon things, but some are multi-day.

If you ran the store, I'm pretty sure you'd be at KAF itself.

2. the store is...

separate. the plant is behind. it is a great store.

there is a fantastic farmers market just up the road from the store, lots of great food and local crafts.

3. I don't know

but either way, you'd effectively be at KAF. The plant sits back a few hundred yards (I'm not the best for visual references - might be more) but it'd likely be on the same property.
You cross over from Hanover, and KAF is to your left. Right after the museum,.

Good things going on there. Both of them, really.

If I worked there, I'd have my paycheck direct deposited into the Hanover/Lebano Food Co-op. That's where the money would end up anyway. Now THERE is a foodie store for you.

4. you are

so right! and i love the Co-Op too!

there is another co-op, much smaller, in Putney that has a great food service. they sell H&H bagels!

[Tab]

5. Yeah but Putney isn't really close to anything

I have a friend and she lives there and works in Brattleboro, I think. Regardless, I love the Upper Valley area. I'm either going to move back there, or to Burlington, VT.

Just have to become independently wealthy, and then I'll be all set.

6. yeah...

Putney is really small. my mother-in-law lives in NH and we stop at Putney on the way up to visit.

My son goes to UVM! Burlington is a happening town.

gorgeous country up there!

7. I went to UVM too

It seems like yesterday, but it was back in 1980, making it what - shit - nearly 30 years? Holy guacamole, batman!

Those were the days where we lived on Redstone, had signs out for 90-keg parties every weekend and grew weed in the public windowsills. You won't find that happening anymore.

Ahhh.. progress sucks.

8. Mmmm, Putney Co-Op...

Good memories of visiting my friend Tegan up there...we would get fresh pasta and Ben and Jerry's and cook and watch movies. :)

9. Ben & Jerry's and movies

I was in Burlington when B&J started. The original shop (still there, as far as I know) was cool, but there was a parking garage next door. What B&J did was every Tuesday (I think it was Tuesday) night during the warmer months would hold free movies on the top level of the parking garage (or top covered level, to be more correct, in case of rain). They had a single projector, which meant that the movies stopped after every reel (usually 20 mins) while they changed the reel, and they projected onto the wall of the central column of the garage, and it was always really grade-B movies (like Creature from the Black Lagoon) but you'd take up either a beach chair or a blanket, girlfriend (or whatever), bottle of wine and camp out, some would get high (not usually me) or drink the wine, make out and watch the movie. I fondly remember that. This would have been around 1980.
