The Thomforde family (owners of the Stone Barn) collected more than the required 105 signatures on their petition by the March 12 deadline, so in the May 21 primary election, West Marlborough voters will be asked: "Do you favor the granting of liquor licenses for the sale of liquor in West Marlborough Township?" The Foxfire Restaurant at the Stone Barn on Upland Road is a BYOB, and alcohol is served at the Stone Barn's banquets and receptions.
If the ballot question is successful, the referendum would reverse West Marlborough's decades-long "dry" status. The Thomfordes believe that having a liquor license would give them more control over the liquor that people bring to the facility and would also allow them to serve locally produced cider, beer, wine and spirits, in keeping with their farm-to-table philosophy.
