Dear Friends of B & H Organic Produce,
Today was the last day of the West Reading Farmer’s Market.
So very bittersweet.
I will thoroughly miss the amazing family of customers and other vendors
from the market but will love sleeping in and going to church on Sunday
mornings.
We still have a few fall crops in our fields. If the weather holds out we will still
be able to harvest in the field for another couple of weeks. Usually we harvest into December
however, last year I picked out of the field in January.
We also have 2 greenhouses which we hope to be harvesting
greens out of this coming January.
Our meats are available year round. We just had 3 steer return from the
butcher and have a full selection of roasts and steaks as well as ground beef,
hot dogs and sausages. All of our
beef is 100% grass fed. We do not
finish the beef on corn and we never use artificial hormones or
antibiotics.
We have whole chickens and parts available as well.
So where can you buy our produce and meat in the winter months?
·
There is a store on our farm – Hartz Natural
Foods. I highly recommend calling
ahead of time to check on availability of the produce and meats. Hartz’s is open Monday through Saturday
from 9 am till 6 pm, 610-286-5268.
The best produce days are Wednesday through Friday. 211 Twin County Rd Morgantown (Twin
County Rd is also RT 10. The store
is only 1.5 miles from 176 and only 16 miles from West Reading.)
·
Wyebrook Farm Market in Honeybrook sells our
produce Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. http://wyebrookfarm.com/produce/
·
Don’t forget you can eat our veggies at Papillon
Brasserie. This restaurant is that
place you can find our veggies dressed up for a night out on the town. http://www.papillononpenn.com/
When available I will be sending out an email with a list of
vegetables that you can preorder and then pick up at a site in West
Reading. This is a pay as you go
system and all items are on a first come first serve basis. I had planned to coordinate these
deliveries with the Cold Season CSA but I will not have time to harvest and pack
all the vegetables by 2 pm on Mondays.
So instead I will be doing the deliveries on Wednesday evenings.
However, for the holiday this week I will be delivering on
Tuesday evening after 5 pm. If you
are interested in ordering produce please email me back with your order by
midnight on Monday night. I will
respond to your email with specific information of the delivery location and
the total cost of your order.
Checks or cash only please.
