Sugartown Family Fall Fest

Green Partners sponsored a wonderful event yesterday at the Willistown Township’s Sugartown Exploration Garden. We had so much fun.

Mikaela has been loving the cider from our CSA and wanted to know how it was made. Our friend Amy told us about this event and we were able to watch a cider press in action.

I just learned from listening to You Bet Your Garden that a deer fence must be 8 feet. Unfortunately the restrictions at Willistown only allow fences up to 6 feet which is a hazard for deer. They think they can jump it but often end up hurt. Green Partners came up with a very clever, and attractive solution for this. The depth of this fence scares off the deer.
