🌱 Sachem Daily: "Sunflowers For Ukraine" + Companies Hiring
The quickest way to get caught up on the most important things happening today in Sachem.

Good day, people of Sachem! Andrew Tessler here with today's copy of the Sachem Daily.
First, today's weather:
Times of clouds and sun. High: 56 low: 39.
Here are the top 3 stories today in Sachem:
- Brookhaven Town to display "Sunflowers for Ukraine" art supporting Ukraine. The sunflower has become a flower representing support for Ukraine, and the Town of Brookhaven will be creating an exhibit led by artist Maureen Pouder. Councilman Jane Bonner was all for the idea and said, "Maureen's idea to have an art exhibit struck me as something that we needed to do. The resolve of the Ukrainians in the face of such a relentless attack from Russia is an inspiration to freedom-loving people all over the world. I encourage everyone to stop by to see the exhibit at Town Hall and show your support for the people of Ukraine." (Sachem Patch)
- Check the latest pets available for adoption. As we head into spring and nicer weather, what better way to get out and get some exercise by adopting one of these beautiful animals. Our weekly addition shows you all pets available for adoption at local shelters. You can click on the pet's name in the link for more information on adoption. (Sachem Patch)
