We'll miss the Strawberry Festival, but we should still be able to pick strawberries, if we want. Otherwise there are plenty of other things to do at the farm. The restaurant on site may not be open, so plan to bring a picnic. </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">We will leave Caribou by 10am and the drive to the farm is about an hour. </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">What to bring: $10/person ($8 for kids) for admission to the farm; two-way radios. </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">Children 2 years and under, </span></span><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;"><em><strong>Active Duty and Retired Military ID card holders</strong></em></span></span><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">, CSA members and Fan of the Farm Season Pass holders, are free of charge.</span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">T</span></span><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">he </span></span><a href="http://www.bluemontvineyard.com/" rel="external nofollow"><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">Bluemont Vineyard</span></span></a><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;"> is across the street, if anyone is interested in wine tasting. I have not checked recently, but in the past, the road to get to the winery was pretty rough. Cricket was ok, but I would be very, very careful.</span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">Please note, the parking lot at the farm is gravel (small gravel, not too bad) and grass. </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#FFA500;"><span style="color:#000000;">*In the event of inclement weather this event will be CANCELLED* I will post here by 8:30am on Monday if the weather looks bad.</span></span></p>
