Small Town, Big Business!

Greenfield is a fairly small town. No, we aren't surrounded by farmland (at least, not completely) and cows don't outnumber the people, but we are a community that abides by the unspoken, small-town code. We do our best to participate in and support town activities, take pride in the good fortune of our neighbors, and boast in the success of our businesses. Especially with regard to the last one, we love seeing new businesses flourish and make a name.

Looking back over the last several decades, consumers have greeted and  cherished a variety of iconic vehicles.

High school graduation is a time of excitement and expectation - but it may also create stress and anxiety. The cost of living is expensive, especially for those of us who are headed off to any level of post-high school education. There are book fees and room and board expenses,  not to mention the tuition and an enormity of other necessary costs. School and the cost of education cause enough anxiety for students; the cost of reliable transportation shouldn't be an added point of stress.

"How Lovely Are Your Branches"

If you celebrate Christmas, chances are you will take part in enjoying the most popular of Christmas traditions: the Christmas tree. While different families may apply slight variations, the practice of this tradition is reverently kept.   More and more people I know are jumping on the fake-tree bandwagon - which, I'll be honest, I don't understand. Sure, it's cleaner I GUESS, but what's Christmas without some extra vacuuming?

Showing the Essence of Christmas through Toys for Tots

What Christmas traits get you most excited for this time of the year? For some, it's the fact that Christmas season lasts over a month (guilty).

Winter Driving: Maintenance and Survival Tips

Not only does this mean a chaotic few days of searching high and low for winter clothing, it also means getting out of the house in the morning early enough to start your car, scrape off layers of ice, and get the interior heated up enough to avoid hypothermia.
