Is anyone still left in town? The internet seems awfully quiet this afternoon. Everyone gone off to the shore or wherever? Ah well, still lots to do and eat here in Bucks County!
In particular…the first New Hope Summer Wine Faire debuts this weekend at Tuscany at the Towpath House in New Hope. Find out more at our previous post. Looks like fun – wine, food…hanging out by the canal, under the shady trees. What could be better?
Ice cream is everywhere too, but in particular why not get up to Chubby’s in Plumsteadville Saturday evening for a 1940’s-style USO Show? Donations will benefit the building of a veterans memorial in Plumsteadville.
On the firehouse circuit, Springtown Fire Company is having a clam bake also on Saturday to raise much needed funds. Tickets include 2 dozen clams, all you can eat shrimp, hot dogs, corn on the cob and more. There will also be a raffle for a timeshare week in Key West or Aruba. Firehouse breakfasts are also going on at the Plumsteadville Fire house (every Sunday) and the Haycock Fire Company. We recommend both.
What can you expect to find produce-wise this week at local farm markets? Ah, I knew you’d want to know that. That’s why I did a special post on farm markets and what’s growing earlier this week. Read more here.
Tune into the blog this week for more local food and recipes, stories and fun places to eat. Make sure to join our email list (look to the right, on the sidebar), Twitter and Facebook page. Especially the latter because I often post little tidbits and late-breaking news there.
For more details on any of these events, please go to our full calendar, Food Events in Bucks County. Have a sweet, relaxing weekend.
