Business Brisk at Price's Vegetable Stand .viV'f-'ïï - - ' r siFK'S .#■ ' ' ■ Business is brisk these days at the Price family's fruit and vegetable stand located on Highway Two, just east of Bowmanville. The popular fresh produce stand has been selling vegetables and fruit grown on the Price farm for approximately 20 harvests. Shown above, from left, arc: Terry Price, his son, Mark, Eunice Oldejans, a helper at the vegetable stand, Phyllis Price, and her son, Alan. By Peter Parrott For the past 20 years, a small business east of Bowmanville has produced a bumper crop of fresh produce and satisfied customers. Many of the people who visit the fruit and vegetable stand operated by Phyllis and Terry Price and their family, come hack year after year. Phyllis Price explained in an interview last week that their stand got started when her mother-in-law and father- in-law found they had a surplus of apples one year. Stella and Sidney Price sold the extra apples at the, roadside and launched what was to become a very successful business. Stella and Sid Price moved to the 100-acre farm east of town during the Great Depression. The late Sid Price was a glass cutter who made fine crystal. However, he was unable to find work in this trade during the depression and decided to take up farming. His wife, Stella, helped him in his new venture. In fact, she worked at the vegetable stand until she was 88 years old. The farm also includes some beef cattle, and the Prices can sit down to a dinner in which every item on the table has come from their own farm. Today, the fruit and vegetable stand located on Highway Two is operated with assistance from the third ? ;eneration of the Price amily. Mark and Allan Price both assist in the gardens and on the stand after school and during the summer. Mark, the eldest son, is attending Sir Sandford Fleming College in Paddy's Market Under New Management Taunton Road, Hampton Used Furniture and Appliances OPEN c _ ooen Tuts, to Sat. 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. 263 - o3o9 Lindsay this year, where he is studying farm management. Alan is a grade 12 student at Bowmanville High School. Six-year-old Natalie, the youngest of the family, also does some of the chores. The farm also relies on the help of a number of local teenagers during the summer. This year, the helpers include Eunice Oldejans, Greer and Gina Guthrie, Colettte and Carol Taylor and David Hogarth. 'Com continues to be the most popular single vegetable, Mrs. Price said. But the fresh-picked produce also includes a cornucopia of other foods such as beans, potatoes, turnips, tomatoes, cauliflower, pears, apples, cabbage, cucumbers, eggplants and much more. Mrs. Price explained that the vegetable stand sells many varieties of corn and each year a new strain is planted. The tendency in corngrowing corngrowing is to produce varieties which ripen earlier in the season. For the Price family, the growing season begins in February when plantings are first made in the greenhouse. In late April, the first plants are started in the field and by mid-July, the first of the produce is harvested. Some of the earliest vegetables are raspberries and beans. During the summer, work begins very early in the morning. The family is in the garden by six a.m., picking vegetables and tending the fields. Produce sold at the stand is picked in the morning, so that customers know they are buying fresh vegetables. The season ends when the last Halloween pumpkin is sold in late October. As well as corn, cucumbers have proved to be a popular crop this year. The small cucumbers used for making dill pickles were sold through advance orders before they were picked. The Prices believe preserves may be more popular due to a tougher economy in which preserving food can save money. Preserving vegetables also ensures that they do not contain unnatural additives, The quality of vegetables sold by the Prices is known well beyond the Bowmanville area. Customers from as far away as Hamilton and Toronto often stop at their stand. Vegetables have also found their way to places such as England, Hawaii, and the UnitedStates. However, It is the customers from Bowmanville and area who are the main source of business. "Bowmanville has been good to us," Mrs. Price said. All week bible school was held here With the largest attendance yet. On Thursday evening their parents met at the basement for a social time. Mr. and Mrs. H. Thickson were in Toronto last week and Mrs. Thickson went on to Brantford and spent a couple of days with their daughter Mrs. Stoats and family. Several in the area attended the funeral of the late Mrs. Sophia Lee, in Peterborough on Wednesday. Interment was at Perrytown and many had gathered there. There was a short service and the Perry- town ladies served lunch in the church basement afterwards. Mrs. Lee was the sister of Mr. Vernon Peacock and the late Mrs. Cecil Mercer and Mr. Victor Peacock. Mrs. Tom Foster had a' tupperware party on Wednesday Wednesday morning. i Mr. Jim Muldrew, Toronto spent the long weekend at home. 1 Miss Wendy White, Toronto spent the past week at home with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. H.

Hodgins is back to work again after her operation in July. ' Mr. Albert Clarkson is in Civic Hospital Peterborough. He has suffered a stroke. School started today and buses are passing. The students are getting out to meet them. It seems to have been a very short two months with hardly any summer. I'm sorry about the late news last week. I put it in the mail box Monday at 8 as usual but when my husband got home from Toronto at night the letter had not been taken or that the mail didn't go; that was Aug. 30 no holiday. Last night the Sunday school leaders met to organize for another year here. Mrs., Foster has agreed to be the superintendant and Mrs. Anne Mercer treasurer as Mrs. McAllister has handed in her resignation. They need more teachers as they now have over thirty children on the roll. They would appreciate anyone willing to help in this good cause. Ontario dairy farmers will receive a price increase of $2.62 per hectolitre, (2.62 cents per litre) for milk produced for the fluid milk market, effective October 18,1982. This represents a 5.97 per cent increase over the current price established in November 1961. The Ontario Milk Marketing Board only sets the prices paid to producers. The retail price depends on this amount plus processor and retailer increases. "For this reason," Board Chairman Kenneth G. McKinnon McKinnon indicated, "we do not know what the final consumer price increase will be". In his announcement, Mr. McKinnon indicated that the producer increase reflects a rise in production costs and recognizes the general need for restraint in tne economy. The Board sets the fluid milk price to producers using an economic formula as a guideline. The formula base nas been updated to reflect current production costs, keeping the returns to producer producer labour in line with federal guidelines. Mr. McKinnon said, "the Board supports the federal government in its efforts to battle inflation through its six and five per cent guidelines, and encourages others to do likewise. However, producers cannot continue to limit price increases if they are affected by large cost increases which originate elsewhere in the economy and beyond their control". In giving specific examples of cost increases affecting milk producers since the last price increase, Mr. McKinnon indicated that feed costs are up six per cent, energy and equipment maintenance costs are up 16 per cent, and overall cash input costs will have increased almost nine per cent during the period. The 2.62 cents per litre increase raises the farm price for raw milk in Southern Ontario from 43.86 cents per litre to 46.48 cents per litre and in Northern Ontario from $45,15 cents to 47.77 cents per litre. Meetings Planned on Closing Two Schools Dates have been set for meetings to discuss the possible possible closing of the Kendal Public School and the Maple Grove East elementary school. In a report to trustees last week, Director of Education Douglas Sifton said that a final decision on the closing of the buildings should be made by October 31. Prior to a decision to close a school, the board of education meets with parents and the community in order to outline the reasons for the closure and to hear from the public. The date for the meeting at Kendal is Wednesday, September 22, while the Maple Grove East meeting will take place Tuesday, September 28. Details of times and dates will also be advertised in local newspapers. If a decision is made to shut down the schools, they will be phased out as of June 30,1983. i THE NEW WEIGHT WATCHERS COOKBOOK IS YOURS FREE % WITH THE NEW YOU. -Jean Sidetch Join now through October 2, attend class for 12 weeks, and get the new Weight Watchers® cookbook.
