Pour Richard's countdown to transition begins
via Ann Williams, owner operator of Pour Richard's
"I got into this business because I love wine. And people. Specifically, I love matching up people I like with wines I like. One of the best ways to do that is to open bottles of wine and let people taste for themselves, because there is no better way to take someone out of their 'comfort zone' and get them to try something new.When I envisioned the store, I thought I'd spend time tasting with suppliers (friends), to find products that I'd then sell to customers (friends). I thought I'd throw fun tastings and parties. And for 11+ years, I did exactly that. What I did not ever want to do: spend every waking moment talking to- or attempting to talk to- town officials. Sadly, that is exactly how I spent the last several months. Thankfully, we're done with all that.I am leaving Pour Richard's in the best of hands. I promise you, you will not be disappointed in this transition. I'm not going to disappear just yet, but we are beginning a (long) countdown. For our last few months, we can go back to the way things are supposed to be: a store full of fun products and fun people.
countdown to transition begins
Fun events. Fun tastings. First off, we have Turn the Page: Introducing Corey B, where you can get a glimpse of the future of Pour Richard's. Then we have an All-Portugal event, with Tony & Augusto. Another 'Conversations' tasting, with Brendan Ferguson. And one with Matt Belanger. An Italian thing I'm plotting with George. Maybe a Pennywise, if I can fit it in? And one last blowout anniversary party (12!), scheduled for Saturday, Nov 16.If my time here were a fireworks show, these next several weeks are the grand finale. Stay tuned; we intend to exit in high style."

Recycle Your Beer Carriers And Corks at Franklin Liquors
"It’s estimated* that at least 10 million new plastic can carriers are used annually by breweries in Massachusetts, with just 10% of them being collected and re-used, and less than 2% of them ever getting recycled. As a result, the amount of plastic beer packaging waste ending up in landfills each year is enough to fill any of the state’s largest breweries with discarded carriers rather than beer.
Now you can bring them to Franklin Liquors to be reused by local breweries!"
Yes, a local answer to the issue raised in 2021. https://www.franklinmatters.org/2021/05/did-you-know-that-plastic-beer-carriers.html
