Don and Nancy Schweingruber of Bluffton are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary July 17.
Don Schweingruber and the former Nancy Hoeltje met while attending Miami University (OH) and married in 1965 at Willow Grove Presbyterian Church in Scotch Plains, New Jersey. They moved to Bluffton in 1972 when Don was hired as Bluffton College’s Dean of Students.
Onions, radishes, carrots, Asian greens, kohlrabi, pea, snow peas, sweet corn and green beans are starting to show up on Saturdays.
One of the suppliers of these fresh produce is first-year Bluffton Farmers’ Market vendor Hibner Family Farm of Wapakoneta. The farm is located in Clay Township of Auglaize County.
Vendor Doris Hibner says that she has five acres of land set aside for farm market produce sales.
Maple Crest residents caught a glimpse of an artist at work recently during a tour of Gallery 323, an art gallery and shop operated by Gregg Luginbuhl on Main Street, Bluffton.
During the visit, they discovered artistic items - created for the most part by Luginbuhl - from white porcelain clay. Additional pieces, including paintings and jewelry, are for sale by other artists in Bluffton.
Gregg's artistic talent came down through the genes, in a sense, as his father, Darvin Luginbuhl, was a former art professor at Bluffton University.
