Downsizing & Decluttering Talk ~ THURS, JUNE 19, 10am Open to ALL, bring a Friend!
2025-06-19 10:00 - 12:00 | Community Room Town Hall, 1043 Buckley Highway, Union, CT, 06076, United States
If you want to start your downsizing journey, or would like some decluttering inspiration, please join us for a talk from Generations on the Move entitled “The Art of Downsizing”
All are invited! Bring a friend!
Thursday, June 19, 2025 at 10 AM
Union Town Hall Community Room

Downsizing is a process that best happens over weeks or even months, depending on the size of the home.
It takes a lot of emotional and physical energy to make decisions on your belongings.
It’s best not to rush this process, so if you need help downsizing it’s better to start sooner than later. Trying to do it all right before a move isn’t impossible but it’s certainly more difficult and less effective. Please join us for “The Art of Downsizing” by Generations on the Move.

Judith Hooper, Shepherdess and Scientist, will share the story of Grass Hill Farm, along with her discovery of the land and the Native American Stonework. She will bring some of her wool products and unprocessed wool. Come and learn about the very first 100% Herdwick Sheep born in the USA ~ On her farm here in Union!
Grass Hill Farm is a small hobby farm in Connecticut’s Quiet Corner. It is one of a handful of farms in the US raising American Herdwick Sheep. Considered a conservation breed, these are the sheep made famous by Beatrice Potter. They are cheeky, funny, and have big personalities.

Originally from the Lake District in the UK, Herdwick ram genetics were imported as frozen semen around 15 years ago and crossed primarily with Icelandic ewes to produced an American Herdwick. Last Winter, frozen embryos were imported from the UK and, with the help of Tuft’s excellent reproductive expertise, the very first 100% Herdwick sheep in the USA were born here this week.
Besides providing fiber, the sheep have participated in an animal facilitated mindfulness and trust workshop offered by the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck NY
