Yet Another Weekend of Near 100 degrees, WEEKEND 6

  As we move into the sixth strong weekend of locally grown, pesticide and chemical free farm produce sales we make a geographic change.  Starting TODAY we are no longer selling directly from the farm in Williams Township.  The traffic this summer simply doesn’t warrant the time expended there.   Instead, we have a great opportunity to join with other local farmers and artisans and sell at the J&T Farm on Kunkletown Road, just west of Saylorsburg.   Very easy to find.  Take Route 33 North to Saylorsburg Exit.  Right off the Exit to Route 115, Right on 115 to gas station (Kunkletown Road intersection) Right and 2.2 miles is J&T Farms.  We will be there on Fridays from noon – 6.  Still will be at the Blue Ridge Market in Saylorsburg on Saturdays and Sundays, as we have all summer.

  This is a going to be a great weekend, I predict.  Weather is HOT, HOT, HOT, but dry.  We have a magic C/C combination.  Corn and Cantaloupes that is.  Last year those were the two most sought after items we carried.  This weekend we have both. 

   The corn is a bi-color corn for a lowered price of just $4.00 dozen.   We were able to get a better deal from the Mennonite Farmers we deal with, so that deal is being passed on to our customers.

   Add to that, some of the BIGGEST cantaloupes I have ever seen.  They are bigger than soccer balls.  For the amazing price of just $3.00 you get one that was picked fresh for sale.

   That is only the top of the line of produce.  We have zucchini 2 for $1.00 and cucumbers at 2/$1.00.  We were able have fantastic tomatoes for only $2.00 quart container.  Onions are on the list this weekend at 2/$1.00 as well as beautiful eggplants at $1.00 each.  

   These are all non certified organic produce, grown locally and fresh in season.  Still you get a lot for ‘dollars’.  You don’t have to spend a lot to eat healthy and eat well.

   Buy local, Buy Fresh, Buy from US !!!!
