Good for You,
Good for Our Community
arms are a rich part of our local culture and
history. Their rolling hills, fields, barns and silos are
fixtures of our region’s scenic rural landscape.

Farms
1. A & J Vegetables/Klingle Farms
2818 Hamilton E (Business Rte 209), Stroudsburg PA 18360
t: 570-424-2647
e: [email protected]
Baked goods, eggs, honey, syrup, jam, pumpkins and vegetables.
Open June through Nov, Mon through Sat, 10AM to 6PM;
Sun 10AM to 5PM. WIC
Farming families have passed their way of life on through
generations. They have worked their land and sustained
our community by providing fresh and healthy produce,
meats and dairy products. But that way of life — and the
land that makes it possible — has become threatened by
giant factory farms, easy access to pre-packaged food
produced around the world, and intensifying pressure
caused by surges in our region’s population and industrial
development.
2. Annie’s Acres
168 Brink Rd, Saylorsburg, PA 18353
t: 610-357-3583
e: [email protected]
w: AnniesAcresFarm.com
We are a small family farm that grows things the old-fashioned
way — without the use of chemicals or pesticides. Our chickens
are pastured and fed an all-natural diet (no hormones or
antibiotics). Organically grown fruits, berries and vegetables, and
all-natural brown eggs. Open April through Nov, noon to 6PM.
Closed Mon. Come see how and where your food is grown and
visit with the animals.
When working the land is no longer a viable economic
choice, local farmers are often forced to make land use
decisions that will ultimately change the area’s rural
character. Without our working farms we will have
lost a significant part of what makes life special here
in Monroe, Pike, Wayne and Sullivan counties.
3. The Anthill Farm
1114 Beech Grove Rd, Honesdale, PA 18431
t: 570-352-6089

raise eight acres of mixed vegetables and tend 10 acres of immature fruit and nut orchards. We are deeply committed to organic
farming practices and strive to provide healthy food to our local
community. Open Mon, Tues, Wed and Sat during the day. CNG
Buying fresh vegetables, herbs, fruits, meats, cheeses,
or eggs direct from local farmers is an easy way to
eat healthier and an effective way to protect land.
Every purchase you make at a local farmers’ market
or farm stand infuses our economy with the resources
necessary to sustain our rural quality of life.
Your choice to buy local — through the farm markets
and farms listed in Shop Local Save Land — can help
farming to remain a vibrant part of our local economy
and will assure that our valuable farmlands remain for
us and for the benefit of future generations.

Pike County Agricultural
Land Preservation Program
The Pike County Commissioners are committed to
assisting our county’s farming community by acknowledging
the importance of preserving and maintaining agricultural
lands as a valued economic, cultural and natural resource.
The Pike County Agricultural Land Preservation Program
helps farmers hold on to their land and continue their
farm operations. Financial opportunities are available to
farmers through the purchase of agricultural conservation
easements so that your farmland remains in agriculture
permanently. Other benefits exist for farmers who want
to enroll their lands in an Agricultural Security Area.
Since the program’s inception in 2007, Pike County has
preserved 98 acres of farmland and has worked with
four municipalities to enroll over 6,700 acres into
Agricultural Security Areas.
Working the fields and mucking stalls is tough enough…
Why worry about the financial future of the farm too?
Consider preserving your farm today.

Pike County Scenic Rural
Character Preservation Program
The Scenic Rural Character Preservation program (SRCP)
was created in 2006 to fund municipal comprehensive
plans and updates, open space plans and land use ordinances. The program also funds open space preservation
through land acquisitions or purchase of conservation
easements from willing landowners.
As of January 2012, the program had funded the purchase
of almost 1,100 acres for municipal parks, open space and
public recreation. It is working to secure another 750
acres for recreation, and to place a conservation easement
on 850 acres for drinking water protection and wildlife
corridor expansion. It has helped to protect more than
775 acres with a conservation easement. These lands,
which remain in private ownership, protect our natural
resources and enhance the scenic values that folks have
come to love.
The program also offers financial assistance to landowners
wishing to donate a conservation easement.

Monroe County Open
Space Program
The Monroe County Open Space Program is a product
of the Monroe 2020 planning process, which led to the
passing of a $25-million bond referendum in 1998 and
adoption of a new comprehensive plan in 1999. These
events led to the development and adoption of a countywide open space plan and formation of the open space
advisory board, responsible for assisting and advising the
County Commissioners on development and implementation of the Monroe County Open Space Program.
Key to the program’s success were financial incentives
for each of the 20 municipalities to develop local multimunicipal open space and recreation plans. The board
also developed requirements for utilizing bond funds.
Since the referendum, the commissioners have allocated
additional funding to continue open space efforts and
to leverage an estimated $75 million in state funding
to preserve approximately 12,000 acres of open
space and 6,000 acres through the agricultural land
preservation program.

Pocono Mountains
Visitors Bureau
The Pocono Mountains Visitors Bureau (PMVB) is the
official tourism promotion agency for the Pocono
Mountains Region of Carbon, Monroe, Pike and Wayne
counties in northeastern Pennsylvania. The bureau, established in 1934, recently celebrated its 75th anniversary
and is accredited by
Destination Marketing
Association International.
The scenic Pocono
Mountains offer visitors
convenient, easily accessible mountain, river, lake
and place-in-the country
travel experiences that
create a lifetime of
cherished memories
with friends, family and
colleagues. The region encompasses 2,400 square miles
of rolling mountain terrain, breathtakingly beautiful
waterfalls, thriving woodlands and 170 miles of winding
rivers. Warmer seasons allow exploration of 261 miles of
hiking and biking trails, over 35 golf courses, whitewater
rafting, boating, fishing and open access to nine state and
two national parks. Winter offers guests the opportunity
to ski, snowboard, snow tube or snowshoe through
wonderlands featuring over 163 ski trails.
The Pocono Mountains are located within driving
distance of most major east coast cities. This region,
teeming with history, offers year-round cultural tours
and art exhibitions, abundant antiquing, brand-name
shopping and a full calendar of festivals showcasing
heritage, music and local food.
Even the most discerning traveler will find comfortable
accommodations, which offers an eclectic mix of resorts,
distinctive properties and quaint, country inns and
bed and breakfasts.
The PMVB values preservation
of the natural environment and
character of our region’s small
towns, responsible development,
consumer centricity and genuine
hospitality. The bureau supports
local, county and state open
space and agricultural
preservation programs and
environmental education.
Hotel Fauchère
Executive Chef and General Manager Christopher Bates
has a passion for food that is reflected in the Hotel
Fauchère’s organic garden, foraging program and support
of local farmers. “Our menu begins when the farmers
bring in our food,” he says. “In a world where people
have forgotten what a garden is and where our food
comes from, my goal is to create dishes that reintroduce
these elements into people’s lives.”
Chef Bates’ organic garden — growing over 100 varieties
of produce and herbs — is part of hotel co-owner
Richard Snyder’s Foster Hill Farm; foraging is pursued
there and at co-owner Sean Strub’s Dwarfskill Preserve
(protected by a Delaware Highlands Conservancy
easement). Hotel guests may visit either property and
have exclusive access to the preserve’s Private Mile,
a naturally reproducing trout stream.
Wild edibles utilized by the culinary team include
dandelion, clover, birch branches, sassafras roots, sheep
sorrel, oxalis, and a variety of mushrooms.
The hotel is a part of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux,
a global association of exceptional culinary destinations.
In addition to 16 casually elegant guest rooms, venues
include its brasserie-style Bar Louis; the Delmonico
Room, offering prix fixe chef’s tasting menus; and the
adjacent Pâtisserie Fauchère, providing fresh artisan
breads and an array of pastries and desserts.
“Working farm to table spurs our creativity,” notes
Executive Pastry Chef Benjamin Youngquest. “When
something comes into season we work with it. There
is no shipping, holding or artificial ripening. It’s five
minutes from our farm to the restaurant and 30 feet
to the table.”
