Benefit for Farm Relief
Among all of the things I do, I’m also the current Vice President for the Milton Grange #685. As I talked about in a previous post, the damage caused by Irene and Lee to farmers in Northeast has been, in many cases, devastating. Kathleen and I have donated some money to the NOFA-VT emergency fund as a percentage of our sales from the Bennington Garlic Fest, but we also hoped we could make an impact closer to home as well. Well here it is. The Milton Grange is teaming up with the Greenfield Grange to host a Wine/Cheese/Cracker tasting. Here are all the details:
The Milton Grange #685 in collaboration with the Greenfield Grange #807 will be hosting a Wine Tasting at the Saratoga Winery on Saturday November 12th at 7pm to benefit the Schoharie County Community Action Program in the wake of Irene and Lee. The funds will be earmarked for farm recovery.
We will have cheese from Willow Marsh Farm and Crackers from Saratoga Crackers. If you haven’t tried either of these, then you don’t know what you’re missing. Amazing stuff.
We hope to see a lot of you there!
