Artists Against the Mega Quarry




Last weekend a number of artists gathered at Carl Cosack's farm to paint the landscapes that will soon be turned into an enormous quarry. That is unless it can be stopped. the land we will be losing is prime agricultural. The water table will be permanently altered and likely polluted. Traffic on our roads will make them impassable. At 2300 acres this will be larger than anything ever developed before in this area or indeed North America. Many people are doing thier part to fight this quarry, at Dragonfly we will be selling a handmade lampwork bead resembling the landscape we stand to lose. Necklaces, bracelets, and key rings will be available to order and proceeds will go to help Stop the Quarry.
