Landis valley plant and herb faire

Hi Everyone,

I will be back at the landis valley plant and herb faire (4th year) this year selling a lot of unique edible plants. It is this Friday and Saturday, May 12 and 13th. 2451 Kissel hill rd Lancaster pa 17601. What a great opportunity to buy a last minute Mother's Day gift?! Anyway, I will be selling 30-40 varieties of figs, hardy pomegranate, Asian persimmon ( saijo, imoto fuyu, and jiro), jujube trees ( honey jar, GA-866, Li, and shanxi Li), many paw paw seedlings ( and some KSU and Peterson grafted varieties), hardy kiwi, currants, lingonberry, jostaberry, hops, ginger plants, turmeric, green tea plants, bush cherry, goji berry, aronia berry, dragon fruit, grapes, Yerba mate, pineapple guava, and probably some other plants I am forgetting. So, if you are interested and willing to drive, it should be a fun time. As always, if anyone on the forum comes, they will receive a discount on anything they buy. Hope to see some of you there!

You should see me there on Saturday, Bill... It's on my calendar..... Coming with the bride... I will wear a white beard for you to recognize me by...   ;-)

Are you serious, Tony? That's awesome. I will look forward to it. I will be excited to officially meet you!

I wish I could go. I've never seen a selection like that down here.

I already have my ticket for Saturday. Your spot sounds like it's going to be incredible. Will you be able to take credit cards, or cash only? I cannot seem to find a price list anywhere.. do you have estimates posted some place, so I can plan my budget?

Looking to go Friday. Do you have to be a member and what are the hours?

Yes, Bill... Perfectly serious. Wife strongly suggests that I am crazy wanting to do a 3.5 hour one way drive... I told her that after 35 years of marriage, my (in)sanity was no longer in doubt....

I also am really looking forward to meeting you in person; not really expecting to do much shopping (that kind of thing is best done without the oversight of the significant other if you know what I mean) but just meeting you and looking around will make my day...

Thank you for promoting the event Bill. I will be at the event as well selling an organic fertilizer- "Ezra Solomon's Fertilizer". Thank you Bill for introducing me to the event a few years ago.

This event sounds so cool. Best of luck for great weather guys!
Cheers

I'm hoping to make it. The Faire seems to always fall on commencement weekend, which makes scheduling the trip a little trickier.

I'll see you there on Friday and probably Saturday as well. This is a great event. We were only able to be there for half a day last year and that was not enough time, there's so much to see.

Thanks everyone! It looks like there will be some folks going, and that is great! I'm so sorry I didn't mention Craig's stand as well. I use Craig's fertilizer on my figs, poms, and green tea plants and they all love it. In fact, Craig's fertilizer is the only fertilizer I use. Great stuff and even the bag is compostable, i think ( I compost it, anyway). Good luck, Craig!

Bummer, I will be out of town for Mother's Day, this would have been a fun time!

Hey Bill - met you for the first time last fall and picked up a few figs & a jujube.  I'll try to skip out work early on Friday to make this event.

What varieties of Cold Hardy Poms do you have, Bill?

Josh,

I have salavatski, Kazake, and a few Lyubimi ( aka favorite) pomegranate.

Cool! Wish I was in the area to check it out.
