That sounds like Jim and Alma Weaver's place. If you ever go back please say Hi to Jim for me. I got to know him quite a few years ago when I was invited to do a dog and pony show for Organic Gardening,Jim bicycled the 10 miles from Kutztown to where the event was, and I ended up getting a ride to their place in Kutztown. Wonderful folks.
Are the pepper and tomato festivals now held at the same time or are they separate events as they used to be?
And is the event still going on and for those interested what are the dates?
