The 2024 Ride & Roast Weekend was a huge success despite mother nature wrecking our Sunday ride. One thing we can’t control :(
We had a great turnout Saturday and we enjoyed delicious food and drinks at Steel Wheel Brewery in Brantford. We all returned back to the farm to enjoy Roast pork prepared by Towsend Butchers, roast beef (prepared by Some Day Farms), Evi’s Roasted potatoes, Amy’s coleslaw, Kathy’s baked beans. Followed up by delicious brownies and Kathy’s famous cherry cheesecake. Live music by Triple Chance was enjoyed as well.
The Silent Auction was a huge success! Please visit our Sponsors page for more information on those who donated to our event! We couldn’t do this without everyones support, help & participation.
Sunday 10 of us braved the weather and we did have a delicious lunch at the Silversmith Brewery in Virgil. Made it home safe & wet LOL.
Thank you to our volunteers who helped set up, prepared food, worked at registration, served food & helped clean up! Anna Haupt, Evi McCutcheon, Jackie Constable, Kimber Marshall, Kim Shepley, Emily Drury, & Tom Lynch.
