Mother nature has been testing all farmers this past week. There is never a lack of excitement or adventure when your lifestyle and profession involves the land.

Sylvanaqua Farms' pigs decided to explore the farm, thinking the grass is always greener on the other side.

In spite of the crazy rain, we now have our grapes off the vines. Cabernet Sauvignon, always the last to come off and susceptible to fall hurricanes, came off today. 2015 has proved to be a roller coaster of a season, from wet to hot and dry to wet again. The season resulted in heavy production with exceptionally high quality fruit.

With excessive rain and more in the forecast, we have CANCELLED our Friday night music and food truck for October 2nd. We will have to catch up with Michael Clem & Thomas Gunn another night as well as Charley's Chili.

The Pumpkin Patch has also been CANCELLED for October 3rd & 4th. The excessive rain has prohibited our preparation and also threatens any chance of having a pleasant experience of Adventure Farm. Mark down October 10th & 11th for our official opening of the pumpkin patch season.

Even through the difficult days, there is always something bright and hopeful. Check out the new food truck which will be operated by Charley's Chili! We can't wait for him to dish up some of his delicious chili made with Adventure Farm beef. A vegetarian chili will also be on the menu, made with our own pumpkins. Satisfy your hunger at the Pumpkin Patch every Saturday and Sunday from 11-5pm, beginning October 10.
