Happy Friday!
Hello there and welcome to your weekly Plew Farm newsletter. Do you know we've been sending our newsletter every Friday since January of 2011?!?! Thank you for reading along and also for forwarding to your family and friends. The farm chores continue with haying being front and center. The weather has been in our favor, although a wee bit hot, we were able to be very productive in getting hay cut, baled, stacked, and delivered. A big shout out to my favorite farmer, Kevin. He's been busy this week! Our farm stand continues to see many faces throughout the week. We are doing our best to keep our shelves stocked for all your needs.
Fresh sweet corn arrives on Saturday, as well as fresh bread! Tomatoes are in full supply and they are so good! Tomato sandwiches are one of our favorite lunches. Ever tried our hot italian sausage? Well if you like a little bit of spice in your meal, you need to try some. It is so good in pasta sauces, over pizza, or simply fried up with potatoes, onions and peppers.
Our grandkids launched their first lemonade stand inside the farm stand yesterday. They sold out in less than 90 minutes. Gramma did not purchase enough lemons for another round this week, but I've been instructed to double my purchase for next week. Stay tuned! Thank you all for following along. We look forward to seeing you this week. We'll be open 12:00 - 5:00.
With the summer traffic and haying season, please be mindful of hay equipment, grandkids, vehicles and customers when driving in and out of our driveway. Our farm stand is located at 1966 Healdville Road in Mount Holly. Open Tuesdays through Sundays from 12:00pm-5:00pm. Closed on Mondays!
We need to make some room in our walk in freezer and we've got 3 boxes of various sized smoked ham ends just waiting for you! These are great for soups, seasoning your favorite rice dishes, or with eggs for breakfast!
Regularly retailed at $8.25/lb .. on sale this weekend for $5.00/lb.

Cavendish Gorge Hike
Once a well known recreational area on the Black River, the Cavendish Gorge was used for catching salmon by the 1st peoples. It was also the site of the Fitton Mill in the late 19th century and continues to provide a hydro dam that was built in 1907.
On August 14 (Sunday), the Cavendish Historical Society (CHS) will lead a hike to the Cavendish Gorge. Meet at the Museum at 2 pm. Wear good shoes suitable for walking on uneven terrain. In the event of rain and/or high heat index, the hike will be rescheduled for August 21 at the same time.
