BAR-B-Q SEASON WRAP UP
This summer Catskill Harvest customers were treated to not 1 but 2 terrific Bar-B-Q events - the first, on July 21, was our second annualCustomer Appreciation Day. This event meant a lot to us because 2012 marks our 5th year in business - how time flies! And although we say it often, we'd like to take this opportunity to say it again: Thank You! We are so appreciative of all the support we have received from the community during the past 5 years that we feel we can't say it enough.
And, on Saturday August 25, we were thrilled to host another BBQ event - this one a fundraiser for the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Sullivan County. Thanks to everyone who attended - the Extension was able to raise a few dollars and, perhaps more importantly, sign up quite a few new members. As a reminder, the Extension offers advice and services on a variety of subjects - agriculture, horticulture, soil & water conservation and more. Click here to learn more about them.
(We'd like to call out a special thanks to Catskill Harvest's kitchen team -Eric & Anthony - for being the best burger flippers in Sullivan County at both these events!)

FALL GARDENING
Late summer and early fall is a bittersweet time for those of us who love gardening. On one hand, shorter days and chilly nights signal the end of summer approaching. On the other hand, most folks love fall weather - and so do plants. Gardeners know now is a great time to plant trees, shrubs and perennials - the sun is less brutal, and there is still plenty of time for new plants to get established before winter. Take advantage of great fall prices, too - our remaining nursery stock is currently on sale for 40 - 60% OFF. And if you're on a tight budget check out The Daily Green for some money saving fall gardening tips.
We still have enough plants left for larger projects, and can special order, too. There are evergreens for wind breaks (which will pay for themselves in energy savings), and many other trees, shrubs and perennials to choose from. If you've got a project that's been on your mind, contact the folks at our sister company, Catskill Harvest Home, at 845-292-3833 - they'd be happy to give you an estimate.

CATSKILL HARVEST HOME PREPARES FOR COOLER WEATHER AHEAD
The First Day of Autumn is Saturday, September 22. During this season our sister company, Catskill Harvest Home, starts booking indoor jobs for the winter months, such as painting, finish carpentry, new fireplaces or wood stoves, and general renovation & remodeling work. As you begin to prepare your home for fall & winter, consider having Douglas Yaun or Will Foster from the Catskill Harvest Home team prepare an estimate for any projects you may be thinking about - roof and window repairs or replacements are good places to start. The Farmers Almanac says this is going to be a colder than normal winter - not just colder than last year - so be prepared.
