Aunt Eunice here. I have been enjoying this snowy weather we’ve been having, but I do wish it would snow everywhere except on the roads and walkways! That sure is a lot of plowing and shoveling! It is so pretty though and looks much closer to the winters of my youth.

Hello Folks,Aunt Eunice here. I hope you are all healthy as a farm’s work horse and doing well. Here on the farm, we are busy with workshops, planning for spring, and preparing for Preschool registration which is always a hectic few days. The farmer was very excited as his vegetable seeds came in the mail last week. He and the retired farm manager can’t wait to get in the garden to plant them. I swear, every gardener’s favorite times are planting and harvesting! Not much to harvest on a farm this time of year, right? Well, there are a couple of things around here you can only harvest in the winter. That would be ice and maple sap.

Hello Folks, Aunt Eunice here. The first week of a new year is over and I can’t help but think of a year of possibilities stretching out before me in the remaining 51 weeks. They could be good, they could be mediocre or they could be not so good. Probably a mix. I am putting out wishes and prayers for good ones for all of us!

On Friday, December 25, 2020, at approximately 1:30 AM, members of the Pocono Township Police Department responded to the scene of a single motor vehicle accident with entrapment on Lower Swiftwater Road. Officers discovered a blue Ford Explorer off the roadway, lying on its roof. One of the passengers of that vehicle, Jobanni Peralta, age 49, a resident of New York, had managed to extricate himself and advised the officers that three other persons remained inside the vehicle.

The Preservation & Dissemination of KnowledgeHello Folks, Aunt Eunice here. Now that our final fundraiser of the year Old Time Christmas is over, we enter Quiet Valley’s only truly quiet phase. The end of December and the month of January are the staff’s time to reflect, to evaluate the past year and to look ahead. This is when assessment on the programming and events of 2020 will take place. What worked, what didn’t? Are there programs that just don’t serve a purpose anymore, can they be tweaked or is it best to set them aside. Are there holes in the programs and activities we offer? This kind of review is what brought about offerings such as our Preschool program which takes place each spring and fall. It brought about the Farm to Table Experience which eventually morphed into the Farm to Table Dinner. Small summer events came about more than a decade ago due to this process.
