The start of the season is just around the corner. Things are busy out in the fields. Things are also busy behind the scenes, as we are preparing for our first annual fundraising concert- "Maysie's FarmFest 2010- The Conservation Concert". We will be featuring local music and local foods. We have about 12 very talented Philadelphia area musicians slated to make the day a lot of fun. We are featuring foods from Maysie's Farm, Why Not Farm, St. Peter's Bakery and Birchrun on A Roll. We are still waiting to hear back from the PLCB to see if we can get a liquor license for the day. Keep your fingers crossed, so that we can have some Victory here as well!
We now have tickets available for advance ticket sales. Ticket prices are $20 in advance and $25 the day of the event. If you are interested in getting your ticket in advance, give us a call and stop by the farm to pick it up!
This is a huge undertaking for us and we are so thankful to all of those who have helped us thus far! We are, however, in need of volunteers to help us out the week leading up to the event and the day of the event. All volunteers will be rewarded! Please tell your friends as well!
Contact Sam if you are interested in volunteering!
Blueberries!
We have had our 200 blueberry plants delivered. Most of the beds are now becoming dry enough to begin planting them. We could use volunteers to help us transplant these fairly large bushes. If you have time available in the coming weeks, please let us know. We have scheduled Sunday April 25th from 1 pm – 4 pm (weather permitting) to plant the bushes. Please come out and give us a hand! Contact Sam if you can make it…. We hope to see you there!
Pleasant Pastures Delivery: Pick up on Friday, April 23rd.
Ben will be making a delivery this week. Please have your orders into Ben by Tuesday evening, April 20th, as he will be delivering to the farm Thursday evening and needs enough time to prepare all of the orders. The pick up day is still Friday, so when you place your order on line, the confirmation will be for April 23rd.
