We cannot thank everyone enough for helping to make this happen.” “This is our second project with the support of Belknap EDC and we have enjoyed our collaborations with Belknap EDC, in particular, its’ business revolving loan programs.”

“All are invited to join us at our Open House on Saturday, December 1st from 1-5 pm to sample Simone’s cookies, breads, and Stollen.”
