On Sunday September 12th the public is invited to enjoy one of two movies; Charlotte’s Web for the families and Farmland a documentary for the more mature crowd.

The classic rendition of EB White’s Charlotte’s Web and the groundbreaking documentary Farmland are the perfect way to share the message with both the younger and older members of the Saratoga County Community.
