"The Dallas Post Dallas, PA Tuesday, November 20, 1990 3 Farm (continued from page 1) Brace said that the family started ' to get into the fruit business in the . early 1900's when his grandfather started planting trees. Brace can tell you a lot about his grandfather and the farm because he has many records about his family. “I spent one whole winter read- ing a diary of my great-great-grand- mother,” he said. “There are alot of things you never realized about the people in that time that I now know.” Brace said that he learned about his family history while working towards getting the Century Farm Certificate. “I've found a lot of the early deeds and other records from the farm and really treasure them,” ‘he said. He said that knowing how much time and effort his ancestors put into the farm gives him great pride when he is working. “] read in the diary that they purchased 59 acres of land at the lower part of the farm for $3,600,” said Brace. He chuckled and added, “My great-great-grandmother wrote, ‘It seems like an awful lot of money but it may turn out for the best.” It seems to have turned out that way as the family continues to work side by side in a business that is often times a lot of work with no immediate reward. Brace did not say if he thought the farm would stay in the family for a long time to come but said he works with his sone Paul, who is living on the farm. “This business changes a lot so you can't really tell where you will be on down the line, but we are doing what we enjoy,” he said with a smile.

Churches in the Back Mountain contribute the food items or cash contributions which they collect from members at special times during the year, as do other organizations from time to time. “This year the Scouts are giving us food items for Thanksgiving,” said the pastor. Christmas time the food bank is the most active and school children and other groups usually contribute. “We try to limit the needy fami- lies to one two-week order once in a three month period. For perish- able items the families are told to call the Commission on Economic Opportunity,” Rev. Shillabeer said. The families are referred to the Back Mountain Food Bank by the CEO in Wilkes-Barre and also through local church pastors’ calls. Once the people are approved and recommended to the food bank, the people are notified to come to the municipal building at a certain day and time to pick up their food order.
