The facility kicked off its new location last weekend.  •  August 25, 2010  •  Willow Farm is a pet supply store that does the bulk of grooming and boarding in this part of Windsor County. The business formerly occupied a smaller facility closer to the the center of Springfield, Vt., but now business owners are in North Springfield in the historic Willow Farm red barn building.  •  I visited the farm's grand opening last weekend with my dog. There were plenty of other dogs there including one special, photogenic Yorkie that was too cute to resist.  •  The farm's grand opening included a selection of free food: salads, hamburgers, hot dogs, lemonade, and cookies. There were free gift bags for dogs and cats, as well as lots of free samples of pet foods. Plus each gift bag handed out by farm staff contained tickets for the raffle table, a table with about 15 different items that were being given away.  •  For attendees at last weekend's event, the combination of warmth, sunshine and the sharing of pets and pet stories made for a memorable event.  •
