The calendar is being reintroduced now as part of a cooperative effort with the Suffield Cultural Council, an informal group of community services and nonprofit organizations serving the Town of Suffield. Email SuffieldCuturalCalendar@gmail.com to submit future events to the community calendar.

Reflecting on the Holiday House Tour

The Suffield Garden Club had a successful tour of our beloved historic Main Street homes this past holiday season to be sure. The street was bustling with activity and holiday spirit. Thank you to those who shared their homes and to our own Garden Club members for their creativity and hard work. Suffield Hardware, the Police Cadets, the Senior Minibus and the Highway Department all contributed to the success of the event. During this winter season, we’ll begin planning for a series of projects that we have just raised funds for.
