The event starts at 1 pm and lasts until 4:30. Wear work clothes and footwear that you don’t mind getting muddy. Bring gloves, a hat and some water to drink. The potato planting will end around 3 pm. The Maypole Dance will be held from 3:30 to 4:30.

Birch Point Farm is a Community Supported Agriculture farm. CSAs provide locally grown produce, eggs, and even meat to customers through the purchase of “shares.” People buy a share and during certain times of the growing season fresh food will be available. It’s a great way to have fresh, locally produced food to eat and support local agriculture.
