We go to Farmington, Maine in this “Conversation on the Road” to talk to Mike Blanchet about Chester Greenwood Day.
Chester hailed from Farmington in the 1800’s. By the time he died in 1937 he had dozens of patents to his name (one informed source told us 130). He is most famous for having invented the earmuff. Chester is honored each year (first weekend in December) at Chester Greenwood Day.
Mike describes the scene in Farmington and just what Chester means to the community.
