Dearest Customers,We would like to once again extend our warm thanks to you for your support for this season. The end comes with mixed blessings. We are exhausted, however we are sad to see the box packing end. This fall has brought many wonderful opportunities and we are eager to finish out the season with fun and productivity. I am posting this blog a bit early this week because on Saturday we will be at the West Reading Fall Festival. We (Sam , Michelle and I) will be working the kids area and pumpkin decorating. Please come out and visit us 1pm till 6pm on South 6th street. It will be a great way to meet all of you that we have not yet met. We are always eager to give back to our community and share the beauty of nature with children.
We are also teaming up with The Food Trust, whom is starting a nutrition program in Reading elementary schools. We will be providing yummy veggies for the children to learn about food, nutrition and local veggies.
And we will be at the West Reading Farmer's Market every Sunday until November 9th if you are missing the food. We will still be harvesting for the store each week. Hartz Natural Foods located on the farm is open Monday thru Friday 9 am till 6pm and Saturday 9am till 3pm. Come to the store and peek behind to see the garden.
If you are missing the fruit, the Frecon store on 562 is open through the week and offering "Pick Your Own" on weekends. What a great way to see where your food comes from.
Also, look for our soap in Berks County Living's Gift Guide this fall.
Thank you so much for taking the time to fill out the questionnaire. We hope it was not too damaged in the delivery this week.
This is the last week to order the things you wanted all season. Thank you all for ordering and we hope to see you next season. Stay posted in the spring for our Open House and "Meet the Farmer" event.
Here is the list for Wednesday September 24th: Leeks, Celeriac, Tomatoes (Paste, Garden Peach, Martian, Cherokee, Striped German, & Green Zebra), Carrots, Turnips, Spinach, Collards, Mustard Greens, Arugula, Beets, Scallions, Eggplant (Turkish Orange, Italian, Oriental), Flowers, Swiss Chard, Lettuce (Green Romaine), Salad Mix, Baby Bok Choi, Baby Cabbage, Broccoli Raab ( limited quantities), & Butternut Squash.
Thank you again.
