B&M owned a canning factory in Denmark many years ago. Would you have the shipping crates used to pack the cans for shipping; cans & labels from the factory stored in your attic or basement? Would you know of the labels or cans the vegetables was sold under? Do you know the staff who worked in the factory? Do you have recollections of the factory and its workers?
If you do have B&M memorabilia and stories we’d like to hear from you.
In December of 2013, Loon Echo Land Trust purchased the 1,600 acre property from K&W Timberlands. In January 2015, the Town of Sebago took ownership of 130 acres of land on Swamp Road in the southern portion of the Perley Mills property. In April 2015, the Town of Denmark took ownership of the remaining acres in Bridgton and Denmark. LELT reserved perpetual conservation easements on both properties to ensure the properties remains undeveloped and available to the public for a variety of recreational uses including snowmobiling and hunting.
The Community Forest conserves significant wildlife habitat and recreational features, including multiple ponds, brooks, and large wetlands. Pickerel Pond, the jewel of the property located in the heart of the Denmark parcel, is used by the public for fishing, swimming and boating with small boats. It also has significant recreational resources, with three miles of the historical Narrow Gauge Trail which now serves as a state snowmobile trail and part of a regional ATV network. Public use of the land will include snowmobiling, ATV riding, hunting, fishing, boating, swimming, walking, bicycling, cross-country skiing and horseback riding, offering a major public benefit and economic asset to the region.
Information from Loon Echo Land Trust and Northern Forest Center.
Summer & autumn 2015 friends and members of Denmark Historical Society began photographing gravestones in a few of Denmark’s oldest cemeteries. July 22nd John Patrick led the youth group to both Fessenden & Fessenden Ingalls Cemeteries atop Fessenden Hill. Members of the youth group inventoried and photographed the gravestones.
We were blessed with a warm summer and autumn and DHS volunteers, Jolene Snow and Lee Ann Shand, continued to photograph more of the older cemeteries around Denmark from August through November.
The town of Denmark mows each cemetery monthly when warm weather begins through to autumn. This year the town crew did upkeep work to Holt, Head, Pingree Berry and School House Cemeteries.
While we are hard at work inventorying graves in the cemeteries we noticed in our older cemeteries that stones are deteriorating. Not only are stones collapsing and breaking, but the writing is disappearing and stones are becoming unreadable.
At this time Denmark does not have a volunteer network which repairs fallen stones and cleans them with Maine Old Cemetery Association standards.
Thank you to all who donated items to Denmark Historical Society.
