September 7!  Pizza!  On the farm!

Cress Spring Pizzeria will be serving them up on Wednesday, September 7, from 4:30 pm until 8:30 pm.

Our last pizza date this season will be October 19. 

Our musical guests this week are the Hicksville Debonairs. They were a real crowd favorite here last year in a slightly different incarnation under the name of the Back Street Serenaders. Playing American roots music, the Debonairs feature harmony singing and a variety of instruments, including fiddle, banjo, guitar, ukulele, jawharp, and mandolin. 

Stompin' Radishes

As summer begins to fade just a bit, we bid a fond farewell to the Prodigal Summer and welcome back the fabulous Pumpkin Sage pizza, featuring house-made pumpkin-sage sauce, dried cranberries, bacon, chevre, and arugula. Grab some cider or an Oktoberfest beer, order up a pumpkin pizza, kick back on the lawn, and watch the leaves start to change color.  

Here’s how it works. Every Wednesday evening from May until October, we'll be selling flaming hot pizzas and delicious desserts, beer and wine, here at Cress Spring Farm. Picnic on our lawn or take your pizza to enjoy at home. Outdoor seating only - you are welcome to bring blankets, lawn chairs, and warm friends to snuggle with. You should also bring whatever plates, cutlery, etc. that you might need for your picnic. Pizza will be served in boxes, beer and soda in bottles and wine by the bottle or glass. You may supplement your picnic with any salads or other food you wish to bring, but we ask that you not bring your own alcohol. We accept cash, checks, credit cards, and chickens as payment.

Our menu for this week is below, and it's also posted on our Facebook page. 

We hope to see you soon!
