Jen has combined her love of writing, connecting with people in the community, technology, helping in local classrooms and the community (as well as working from home) to publish Community Vine, an electronic magazine for and about Westminster, MA and the surrounding area. Community Vine empowers members of our community to get involved with local efforts to help others.
