Successful Brat Frys

10/13/2020

0 Comments

 
After a couple of cancellations due to Covid 19 concerns, we finally were able to have 2 successful brat frys at Prems Meats in Spring Green.  
Picture
​Our master chiefs decided to add chicken breast sandwiches and Italian sausage to our menu of brats and hot dogs.  The chicken breast sandwiches were popular.  We sold 20 Italian sausages.  The decision is out on the Italian sausage for next year but we will definitely bring the chicken breasts back.

​​On both days we were blessed with good weather for the brat frys.  It stopped misting / sprinkling by the time we were ready to set up and started misting / sprinkling as we started cleaning up.  It was a tiny bit nippy for the October day.   We worked really hard but we also had a lot of fun.
​

​​All proceeds from our brat frys go to operating expenses.  We cleared a tad over $600 on each of the frys giving us a good start for the 2021 gardening season.  Thanks to Thrivent Financial for seed money for expenses and to Prems Meats and Hometown Supermarket for their support.  We are adding plots so we know that we need to get new plot markers, expand the irrigation system, purchase more hoses and another wagon or two, 

Dates for the 2021 brat fry season will be set in early spring and will be scheduled sometime between mid-July to mid-September.  Be sure to stop out and support the Community Gardens.
