Pocono's demo in White Haven PA

A beautiful autumn Saturday morning and I'm at the White Haven Market in the Pocono's region of Pennsylvania. I had met the store manager, Mark, a few weeks earlier at a food show and promised him a demo when he ordered 3 cases of Cranberry Turkey Burgers. My usual set-up with a table, sign, electric skillet, cooking oil and condiments paved the way for dozens of curious customers. By days end, 2 dozen boxes were sold, with store staff particularly pleased with the slightly sweet taste and healthy nutrition they found in every bite.

Back to Basis Good Food Fest in NYC!

It was a beautiful day in the Meat packing district of lower Manhattan as the 1st annual Good Food Fest, sponsored by Basis, was held. There was a mix of chefs cooking local foods and growers, selling their products for all to enjoy. Koch's Turkey Farm thinks that any opportunity to make contacts in NYC is a good one, so a sunny Sunday in the Big apple (talking turkey) was time well spent!

Mayor checks in at Koch's Turkey Farm stand at the Allentown Fair

Mayor Ed Pawlowski stopped by the Koch's Turkey Farm award winning tent at the Great Allentown Fair this week and is shown here with his son and Pam Koch Williams. Earlier that day, the stand won the "Beautification Award" as best decorated stand. Under Pam's direction, there were hay bales, corn stalks, scarecrows, pumpkins, fall garland, mums, banners and lights making for a truly beautiful tent.
