Quiet Heroes of New Canaan: Weezie Reid

Patricia Spugani, a town resident who volunteers to support the New Canaan Farmers Market, has seen hundreds of masks in checking shoppers in at the Saturday event under a new walk-thru model. So it’s unusual for one to stand out as the one New Canaan’s Weezie Reid was wearing a few weeks ago. It had a pattern of strawberries, with little green stems on a white background and red edge trim with white dots. “I said I love it and she told me that she had made it,” Spugani recalled. “We kept talking and I mentioned that my mom is a resident at The Inn and if she was looking to make more—because she said she’d been looking to make more—that I would be happy to buy some for my mom and friends at The Inn.
