Dave McGuire and his cousin Danielle bundled up to work the night shift for potato farmer Mike Fitzpatrick last week. They graded the potatoes as they were unloaded from the bulk body and the crew worked into the night to finish before the snow hit the area. This year’s season has been a challenging one since the planting began in the spring. We thank our local farmers and their employees for their hard work.
