What’s Happening Next Week at Dancing Cub Farm

Next week is shaping up to be a big one here at Dancing Cub Farm, with a full production schedule and a two‑day weekend lineup that splits perfectly between food service and retail. Fall events are rolling in, markets are shifting into their cooler‑weather rhythm, and I’m excited to bring fresh, handmade foods to both the winery crowd and the local market community.

🍇 Saturday: Star in the Valley Winery – CrushFest (Food Vendor Only)

Next Saturday I’ll be at Star in the Valley Winery serving food for CrushFest. This day is food‑only, focused entirely on the event menu — no retail items.

I’ll be serving:

• Fresh sandwiches

• Charcuterie‑style picnic boards

• Microgreen‑topped bites

• Event‑style foods made for winery guests

CrushFest is one of the most fun events of the season, with grape stomping, live music, and beautiful mountain views. It’s always a great day to enjoy good food and good wine.

🌾 Sunday: Middletown Farmers Market (Retail Day)

Sunday is your chance to shop the full Dancing Cub Farm retail lineup. I’ll have:

• Fresh breads

• Mixes

• Microgreens

• Tortillas (pre‑order)

• Pantry items

• Vinegars

• Croutons, crumbs, chips

• Pizza crusts

• Seasonal favorites

If you’re stocking up for the week or grabbing fresh items for fall meals, Sunday is the day to stop by.

🌱 Next Week’s Production Plan

I’ll be spending the week getting everything ready for both days:

• Microgreens harvest

• Bread baking for Stomp the Grapes

• Mixes and pantry items

• Event food prep

• Organizing downstairs once new containers arrive

• A little house reset, lawn care, and garden cleanup

• Final shopping on Thursday to keep production rolling

It’s a full but steady rhythm — exactly the kind of week that keeps the farm moving smoothly.

🍁 Looking Ahead: Winter Markets

I’ve applied for Leesburg Saturday Market starting in November, with the option to add Sunday if it’s a good fit. Leesburg runs all winter, which means steady retail opportunities and a strong customer base through the colder months. I’ll share updates as soon as approvals come through.

🛒 Shop Online Anytime

If you can’t make it out next weekend, the online store is always open. You can order for pickup or shipping, and pre‑order items (like tortillas) are clearly marked with the required notice.

Thank You for Supporting Dancing Cub Farm

Every event, every market, and every order helps this little farm grow. I’m excited for the season ahead and grateful for everyone who stops by, shares a meal, or brings home something fresh.
