Marion Natural History Museum341 viewsThe Marion Natural History Museum wishes to thank Plymouth County Entomologist Blake Dinius for his presentation, "To Bee or not to Bee." Blake explained that although wasps are not well-received, all of our bees are wasps. However, not all wasps are bees. Bees are a subgroup of wasps and can be seen as a "vegetarian" wasp and get their protein from pollen. Bees are also much hairier than wasps. Blake jokes that bees are "hippie" wasps.

Hammond Cemetery341 viewsHammond Cemetery, located along River Road and acquired by the Town of Mattapoisett (then part of Rochester) on January 10, 1789, is home to burials dating prior to 1740. Like the town-owned Barlow Cemetery located off Park Street, the Hammond burial ground is in dire need of maintenance and will benefit greatly by the formation of a new committee that will advise the Select Board.
