It was a pleasure to join the BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company) team in Canaan to celebrate 65 years of manufacturing excellence, innovation and community partnership!

What began with eight employees in 1961 has grown into a facility employing more than 500 people and producing over 2 billion syringes annually for patients in more than 70 countries. That’s an incredible example of Connecticut craftsmanship making a difference around the world.

From pioneering the disposable plastic syringe to helping meet critical healthcare needs, generations of BD employees have helped make Canaan a vital part of global healthcare.

I’m proud to represent a community where this important work happens every day. Congratulations to the entire BD team and thank you for your continued investment in our workforce, our local economy and the health of our communities!

🐄🍫 A sweet stop in Goshen! I enjoyed visiting Thorncrest Farm & Milk House Chocolates and meeting owners Kimberly and Clint for a tour of their farm and business.

They use milk from their own cows to create their chocolates, bringing together local agriculture, craftsmanship and small business in a very special way.

As Goshen’s only remaining dairy farm, Thorncrest also reminds us why preserving farmland and open space matters. Protecting our agricultural heritage and keeping decisions about our towns’ futures in local hands helps preserve the character of the communities we call home.

Thank you, Kimberly and Clint, for welcoming me and for your dedication to keeping agriculture thriving in Goshen!
