Beaver Farmers' Market Still OPEN !

Two more Saturdays left for the Beaver Farmers' Market. Today the weather was relatively mild in the 40's and sunny. Baked goods were sold out by the time we got to market, but after Thanksgiving, who really needs it?!? I'm rationalizing, of course. We picked up a couple of cabbages from Oak Spring Farm and some green onions from Dave's Produce.

My big purchases of the day were Christmas wreaths and swags made by the Volkar family. It's a tradition every year. The 13th will be the last day to get holiday greenery at market, so don't miss it! Here are the Volkars taking orders and customizing wreaths ........
After the market we stopped for lunch at a local drive in restaurant ...... yes, we still have carhops in Beaver County! This is another way to get "local" into the equation. Not necessarily food from local farms, but supporting a local business over a chain. Jerry's Curb Service is located in Bridgewater, PA on Riverside Drive. You can't miss the big EAT sign on Rt 51. If you go on a warm evening, the local car buffs circle the lot with antique autos & muscle cars as you're parked in your car eating. No one was circling today, but it was a perfect day to eat in the car. Try it sometime if you're in the area. Back into a parking space, turn on your parking lights, and wait for the high tech carhop with a handheld device to come and take your order!

Finally, back home to put up the wreaths ......
