The New Farm Harvest Festival, Sept 18

Hot on the heels of their very successful Fred Eaglesmith concert and BBQ, the New Farm is gearing up for another Stop fundraiser! For one night only, the farm will be transformed into a restaurant, theatre and concert hall with an organic BBQ (complete, of course, with fresh organic veggies straight from the farm); foot-stomping folk music from the Sun Parlour Players; and a performance of Reesor by Erin Brandenburg and Lauren Taylor. This acclaimed play – NOW called it "grassroots theatre at its best" – chronicles the history of the northern Ontario town of Reesor, settled by immigrants in the 1920s and 30s. The event is generously sponsored by Bernardin (who will give you a jar to fill up with some of Creemore’s best brew from the cash bar!) and by Blundstone Footwear, who will be raffling off some of their fine boots. For more info, please call Sara at 705-466-9906 or email sara [at] creemore [dot] com. All proceeds benefit The Stop and New Farm's Grow for the Stop program.
