Factory Five Closed Due to Winter Storm Hercules

Posted on January 3, 2014 by in What's New

The new year has just begun, and the first big snow storm here in New England has hit.  The snow started to fall early on January 2nd and left us a nice dusting (as you can see in the photos in the post), but picked up strength in the evening and overnight dumping between 12″-18″ on the ground.

Due to the storm, Factory Five will be closed on Friday, January 3rd so that our team can remain safe at their homes.  We will be open on Saturday for kit pick-ups and plant tours and back to full strength on Monday, January 6th.
