Today's riddle: Why was the scarecrow given an award? 🤔 (Answer below!)
• Local Event: Native Drumming, Song & Dance (patch.com) — Medfield residents are invited to a free Native drumming, song, and dance gathering hosted by the Medfield Historical Society and Medfield Public Library, featuring the acclaimed Eastern Medicine Singers. Funded by the Medfield Cultural Council, the event offers a sunset-timed, family-friendly chance to experience Indigenous music and culture, with a rain plan that moves activities inside the library.
• Medfield Garden Club Presents "Attracting Songbirds to your Yard" (patch.com) — Medfield gardeners can catch a detailed talk on attracting and supporting local songbirds when the Medfield Garden Club hosts expert Lisey Good on October 14 at United Church of Christ on Main Street. Non-members can attend for a small door donation, while members are free, and everyone will leave with practical plant ideas to help hummingbirds, finches, orioles, and more.
• The state desperately needs more housing. Could an old Army barracks at Devens be part of the answer? (bostonglobe.com) — Massachusetts officials are eyeing underused state properties to ease the housing crunch, and Medfield is part of that push. A long-discussed Trinity Financial apartment project at the old Medfield State Hospital is cited as one of several state-backed efforts that could finally move forward, potentially bringing hundreds of new homes while larger redevelopment debates continue at Devens and beyond.
