Savor! A strolling supper

August 5th
LEAF Farm
In LEAF's largest annual fundraiser, innovative farmers and celebrated chefs join together to create locally sourced, fresh dishes, served at the LEAF farm. Join youth, chefs, farmers, and community members to celebrate the accomplishments of the season.

Two of our youth leaders had the chance to participate in a round table with Senator Casey and his staffers. Also at the table were so many talented farmers voicing their perspectives on the farm bill, support for new and beginning farmers, healthcare, etc. Thank you to Village Acres and Hannah for inviting future leaders to the table!!
Had our last partner farm visit yesterday to @northmtnpastures. Grateful to have had the opportunity to learn from them and the 6 other farms we worked at throughout the summer. Thanks to @papreferred for being the season sponsor that made it all happen! #realfarmers #realpeople #paproud
LEAF had an amazing afternoon @rootsflowerfarm, with flowers in our hair and our hands in the dirt! #flowerfarming #centralpennsylvania #sunflowers @papreferred
Colors of the season
We weeded a whole lot today at @spiralpathfarm, where we learned about how farms bigger than ours grow veggies! Check out how tough this crew is! #toughweeders #tuesdaygrind #organicfarming @papreferred
Poppy S. Bagel said to remind you about LEAF's Open Farm shindig tomorrow from 12-4! Youth-led tours and demos, food & drinks (there just might be some Leo's ice cream with mixed berry sauce. . . ) and live music by the @theflatwheels! Woof.
