Noblehurst Farms Inc, of Linwood, will be

hosting a summer fundraiser to benefit the

Pluta Cancer Center on Sunday afternoon,

August 9^th. The picnic will feature: Chicken Barbeque

(York Fire Department), ice cream, live music from Tim Bucci and his band, tours of the farm and rotary milking facility, and a farm equipment exhibition.

 

The Pluta Cancer Center in Henrietta has served many patients and families in

Within our small, close-knit communities we have seen far too many friends, family, and neighbors affected by cancer. This fundraiser is one small way to recognize the impact of this disease. The picnic’s planning team, comprised of Noblehurst Farms employees, York Fire Department volunteers, neighbors, church groups, and family, has been overwhelmed by the interest and generosity from the community for the event in the form of donations. Local businesses, including an overwhelming number of farms and agricultural vendors, are contributing their time, dollars, food, and equipment.

 

The picnic begins at 1 pm on Sunday August 9^th at the farm’s main dairy facility on Craig Road in Pavilion. The chicken barbeque will run from until 3 pm, and farm tours from 2 – 5 pm. Tickets are on sale now and we invite you to join us by bringing friends, family, and neighbors. Call Linwood Turf Equipment at 585-584-3122 or visit www.plutacancercenter.org for ticket information. Tickets are pre-sale only, and limited in number.
