  • No other technique for the conduct of life attaches the individual so firmly to reality as laying emphasis on work; for his work at least gives him a secure place in a portion of reality, in the human community.

    New house, meat club and more

    August 16th, 2010


    Last Friday, we had settlement on Tab’s first house in South Philly. It went smoothly. Now her fun begins as a homeowner. Best of luck, Tab.

    A couple of weeks ago, I was inquiring at some local farmers markets about setting up something whereby one could buy a share in meat and poultry from their farm. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any. But then I received an email from a friend in Media about something called a meat club. A local farm called Forks Farm in Orangeville, PA was doing just this. They provide a list of farm fresh products that you can choose from to buy. There are various kinds of meat and poultry as well as dairy products. And then they deliver to a local place once a month for pickup.

    So, I joined. We made our first order and I picked it up yesterday at Rushton Farm in Newtown Square, PA. I met the folks from Rushton Farm and visited their farmers market. Since we already get a lot of produce from the CSA Red Hill Farm we belong to, I bought flowers for my wife.

    My nephew Gregg is returning from his world-wind vacation in Africa. He’s been there since the World Cup and is now in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on his way home. Can’t wait to see him and hear about his travels, more than what he posted on Facebook.
