Sign up to the Plainfield and Marshfield Area Local Directory of Skills and Resource

If you consider yourself part of the Plainfield or Marshfield community and have skills and or resources to share, sign up now! Our first directory is now available. Check Plainfield/Marshfield area stores or town clerks for a copy.

In order to make a transition to a local first culture, we need to know what skills and resources are available to us in our communities. The Local Directory will do just that. Modeled on the old town directories, it will provide not only people's name and contact information, but if they have a business, skills that they have, as well as resources they have to share. It is left up to individuals to contact each other and make any agreements.

Download the form below from comment section and email it to bfg@naturaldesignbuild.us.
Or mail it in to the the Plainfield Town Clerk.
Detailed instructions are on the form.

If you are from another town or community, but want to have a local skills and resource directory, we can help you make it happen.

Good to hear from you! Do you have return dates?

We are soon to print. Trying to beef up all of our entries in time for Town Meeting Day dispersal. So everyone should send in their forms! The name has changed to the Plainfield and Marshfield Local Directory of Skills and Resources. or just "Local Directory" It has helped everyone understand it much better. While Skills Directory sounded good, it was confusing.

Website has a first draft. No see yet.

Look forward to your return.

Comment by janice on January 21, 2009 at 12:03pm: Hi Ben! Good to see you started a group for the directory! How are things moving along with the directory- any printings as of yet? It would be nice to have an update here for others to know too. How about the town website? I know that's a separate venture but it would aid the marking and use of the directory. Missing Vermont happenings...

Comment by George Lisi on November 28, 2008 at 7:26pm: Right on, bro! Fyi, Steve Gallagher who does the Maple Corner Net Newletter, is planning on putting out some sort of matrix for users to fill in for a Calais area skills and resource directory.
