Clements Family Christmas trees shared a heads up yesterday. They will have no trees this year. Bob Clements is sorry to report they will not be selling Christmas trees on Cove Road at Inglesby Funeral Home during the 2021 season. "Sadly, we just can’t get enough of the quality trees we’ve always offered, so for only the 2nd time ever, our lights won’t be on. We’ll do our best to be back next year. Deepest thanks to our wonderful customers; for making us part of your holiday traditions. You’ve been like family and we'll miss you. Thanks also to the management at Inglesby for your friendship and kindness. Best wishes to all for a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2022." For more than 30 years the Clements family has been at Cove and Wyndham Roads with very fresh and beautiful Eastern PA Douglas and Fraser Firs. They will be missed!

The Borough Council of Merchantville passed a resolution on October 25th opposing a plan by New Fortress Energy to build a massive liquefied natural gas export terminal in Gibbstown, Gloucester County. The Merchantville resolution calls on Governor Murphy to reject permits needed to load highly explosive and polluting LNG onto ships for export out of Gibbstown, and calls on the Army Corps of Engineers to complete an environmental impact statement on the project. This week’s vote is the ninth resolution to pass opposing the project. “Twenty five residents showed up at Merchantville’s October 25th Borough Council meeting to support a resolution put forth by the town’s Green Team in opposition to the New Frontier Energy’s plan to transport massive quantities of LNG via rail and highway in South Jersey,” said Merchantville resident and Green Team member Dorothy Foley, who was one of the seven people who testified in support of the resolution. She added that they were “horrified at the foolhardy and dangerous plan to transport LNG but more than anything…the overall environmental impact of allowing this huge investment in fossil fuel infrastructure at a time when all efforts should be into transitioning away from carbon fuels.” So far, resolutions against the project have passed in Princeton, Pennsauken, Runnemede, Haddon Township, Riverton, Hazlet, Burlington City, and Merchantville.
