Maple Corner Farm Reopens During Pandemic
January 2, 2021
The first snow of the season allowed Maple Corner Farm in Granville to open early for cross country skiing and snow shoeing. Last spring, the farm’s maple sugaring season was cut short due to the state’s COVID-19 restrictions. This winter visitors will encounter new changes — from how they purchase tickets, to the amount of people allowed in the lodge, and social distancing in the rental shop.
Despite the restrictions, opening weekend was quite popular with people just looking to get outside and enjoy the fresh air. Producer Dave Fraser brings us the story.

Springfield Pumping Station Project Kicks Off Phase 1 of Waterworks Upgrade
December 16, 2020
The city of Springfield was founded in 1636, and while the wastewater pipes that are still used today aren’t that old, many of the city pipes date back to the late 1800's.
Springfield’s current pumping station was built in 1938, when Springfield and the surrounding cities and towns had much smaller populations. In order keep up with the growing population as well as environmental needs and concerns, the Springfield Water and Sewer Commission is taking on the region's largest wastewater project in decades.
Connecting Point's Brian Sullivan visited the York Street site for phase one of this immense undertaking.
