In 2012, Kegel's Produce will once again strive to bring their customers the finest in quality of locally grown produce. Last year, we had our most successful year selling locally grown product in our company’s history, and we hope to do even

better this year. Our lineup of locally grown products includes over 150 items, all from within 150 miles of our award-winning facility in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

The following booklet contains products that we intend to have this year and specific information on each one of them. We have been communicating with our local suppliers frequently over the colder months, and like all of us here at Kegel’s

Produce, they look forward to the season ahead.

For more information on locally-grown or any other produce item, please feel free to contact your produce consultant or our customer service team. You can

also read about our local produce on the web, at www.kegels.com. There you will find Locally Speaking; a newsletter specifically geared towards locally-grown

produce which is updated every Monday throughout the season.

APPLES

LOCAL APPLES FROM:

Kauffman’s Fruit Farm, Bird-in-Hand, Pa.

Bear Creek Orchards, Aspers, Pa.

Hess Brothers Fruit Farm, Leola, Pa.

Leola Produce Auction, Leola, Pa.

PACK DESCRIPTION: When receiving from Kauffman’s, product is generally packaged in wooden crates. Cases generally weigh in the neighborhood of 40 lbs., plus the weight of the wooden crate (which can get to be almost 50 pounds total). When a customer receives these crates, they must return them, as we pay a deposit fee every time we take a crate from Kauffman’s. Deposit fees are refunded to Kegel's Produce upon return of the crates to Kauffman’s. Apples from Hess Brothers come in cardboard boxes which weigh 40 lbs. Apples from Bear Creek arrive in various sized boxes.

AVAILABILITY: Local apples are available from early September to the end of the year and even beyond, depending on storage and care. Last year, we were able to purchase locally-grown apples well beyond December 31st.

BREAKING CASES: Kegel’s Produce does not break cases of local apples.

APPLE CIDER

APPLE CIDER: In 2012, we will have five different case sizes of apple cider available. Code 80000 is always available for next-day delivery, other cases require 1 day of notice.

OTHER APPLE PRODUCTS AVAILABLE: Kegel’s Produce also has a few other apple selections to choose from. Requiring at least two days of lead

time are our sliced (code: 80078) or peeled and cored (code: 80079) apples, which come in 30-pound cases. Numerous varieties and sizes of apples are available as well, please contact us for more info.

CABBAGE

LOCAL CABBAGE Green and Red, available by the pound or the bin

FROM:

J.R. & T. (Bob) Musser’s Farm in Lancaster, Pa.

Leola Produce Auction, Leola, Pa.

PACK DESCRIPTION: Most of our cabbage will go to our fresh-cut department, but Kegel’s will be offering local cabbage to customers this year by the pound, and can sell entire bins if that becomes a necessity.

AVAILABILITY: Local cabbage is generally available from early to mid-July through Thanksgiving.

MORE ABOUT CABBAGE

PHOTO GALLERY: These photos of Mr. Musser and his family planting rows of cabbage are from year’s past when we visited his farm. Mr. Musser’s farm lies closer to our facility than any other of our locally-grown sources, and due to that we can get cabbage six days a week if we would even be in a pinch. After Mr. Musser picks his cabbage, he stores it in a large walk in cooler at his farm until either he delivers it to our warehouse or we backhaul it from his farm in Manor Township, Lancaster County.

Mid-April – Plants begin in a greenhouse to spark growth; these plugs will be planted

Mid-April – One of Bob’s sons planting pre-grown cabbage

plugs in the field using a machine

Mid-April – The end result; plugs are inserted in ground and the

growing process begins

Mid-April – Bob guiding his tractor through one of the fields

on his farm during planting

Mid-June – An 80% mature head of green cabbage; this will be picked in about three weeks

Mid-June – Red Cabbage (foreground) and Green Cabbage

SWEET CORN

LOCAL SWEET CORN White and Yellow varieties are available, with yellow being limited.

FROM:

Cedar Meadow Farm in Holtwood, Pa.

Brooklawn Farm Market in Neffsville, Pa.

Good Harvest Vegetable Farm in Strasburg, Pa.

Leola Produce Auction in Leola, Pa.

PACK DESCRIPTION: Our local sweet corn will be backhauled or delivered to our door in 50 dozen bins throughout the summer. If desired, Kegel’s Produce will sell entire bins of sweet corn to a customer. We will not sell corn by the ears, so minimum purchase will be at least one dozen.

AVAILABILITY: Due to a cooler than normal June and wet weather, Sweet Corn was not available to us last year until the third week of July. While that is not entirely late for a season, in years past we have had good weather and squeezed some in around Independence Day. Consumers can expect to pay top dollar during July for local sweet corn. Once corn becomes readily available, Kegel’s Produce makes every attempt to purchase fresh sweet corn at least six days a week. Once the season gets into September, things really scale back with this crop.

BREAKING CASES: Kegel’s Produce will sell corn by the dozen and the bin in 2012.

PICTURES & MORE INFORMATION: The pictures below are from the past two years at Steve Groff’s Cedar Meadow Farm in Holtwood, Pa.

Mid-April – Early sprouting sweet corn plants begin to appear at

Cedar Meadow Farm

Mid-May – One month later, considerable difference in plant

height

Mid-May – Plants which began growing under plastic will be the

first to be harvested

End of June – The same rows as the picture in the middle of the

top row, seven weeks later

End of June – 85% maturity, these are the same rows as the

upper-right picture

Early July – Full grown head of white sweet corn, in husk

PEPPERS

LOCAL PEPPERS Green, Red and Suntan varieties available

FROM:

Ivan & Mabel Reiff in Leola, Pa.


PACK DESCRIPTION: Peppers will be available by the bushel box, standard industry size. Weights will be similar to that of normal bushel and one-ninth pepper cases, anywhere from 21-25 pounds.

AVAILABILITY: Based on last year, local peppers will be available from July 4

th through the end of October. This could be

different this year however, due to the increased amount of crop that Mr. Reiff has planted this season.

MORE ABOUT PEPPERS

OUR GROWER: Mr. Ivan Reiff, who also grows spinach, swiss chard, seedless watermelons and kale for us throughout the season, has been supplying us with local produce for over 4 years now. In April 2008 when we visited his farm, we took the following pictures.

Pepper plants begin to sprout in one of Ivan’s many fields. The plastic traps heat in the soil which will help the plants grow faster. Mr. Reiff

hopes to have green peppers for Kegel’s Produce by July 4th

, with other varieties expected to yield later in July.

Ivan Reiff, seen here with a case of his cleaned local spinach, will be supplying Kegel’s Produce with farm fresh product all year long. His

home-grown Kale, which should begin to arrive in early June, is one of our best selling local products.

This picture shows a field in which Mr. Reiff has spinach planted. As you can tell, the spinach is quite developed and almost ready to be picked. Local spinach from Ivan’s farm was the first locally grown

product we had in our warehouse in 2012, and usually grows until it begins to get hot in mid-June.

PUMPKINS & FALL ITEMS

LOCAL PUMPKINS & FALL ITEMS

FROM:


Lapp’s Autumn Variety in Strasburg, Pa.

Richard Barge in Strasburg, Pa.


PACK DESCRIPTION: Pumpkins & fall items will be sold by the each or by the bin (pumpkins). The exceptions to this rule are bushels of mixed gourds, and jack-b-littles, which will be sold by the half-bushel.

AVAILABILITY: Pumpkins and the cup squashes are available locally towards the beginning of August. From then until mid-September they are sporadic before becoming abundant from mid-September until Thanksgiving. gourds, Indian corn and corn stalks follow relatively the same schedule, while Jack-b-littles begin around mid-September.

BREAKING CASES: Kegel’s Produce will not break any cases of jack-b-littles or mixed gourds in 2012. Pumpkins will be sold only by the each, or by the bin to special functions.

MORE ABOUT PUMPKINS & FALL ITEMS

THINGS YOU NEED TO, AND DON’T NEED TO KNOW:

Gooseneck Gourds are often referred to as “Birdhouse Gourds”.

If a customer is looking for a certain type of gourd, we may be able to fulfill their need. We have access to over 10 different varieties of gourds in 2012.

Our three sizes of pumpkins, small, medium and large, are all great for carving. We can also get extra-large pumpkins if necessary; two days notice.

We can get specialty fall items, however we can not put them on our trucks due to food safety concerns. Special deliveries will need to be made for these products. (Indian Corn, Straw Bales and Corn Stalks)

PUMPKIN SIZES AND WEIGHT (APPROXIMATE)

SMALL PUMPKINS o 21” – 28” in circumference, approximately 10 pounds each

MEDIUM PUMPKINS o 28” – 36” in circumference, approximately 18 pounds each

MORE ABOUT SQUASH

LEOLA PRODUCE AUCTION: The Leola Produce auction will be a mainstay in our local program once again this year. The auction is a place where local farmers that Kegel’s may not deal with frequently bring produce to sell. During the season, it is common that we will bring in Green and Yellow Squash, Watermelons (Seeded and Seedless), Tomatoes and other products that we may not have a local supplier available. Below, trucks line up to sell their products at the produce auction in Leola.

TOMATOES

LOCAL TOMATOES Green, Red and Suntan varieties available

FROM:


Good Harvest Vegetable Farm in Strasburg, Pa.

Brooklawn Farm Market in Neffsville, Pa.


PACK DESCRIPTION: Tomatoes will be packed to the industry standards, 25lb cases and 12ct. cases for grape, pear and cherry tomatoes. The exception will be the heirloom tomatoes (15 & 10lb. cases), which we have two sizes.

AVAILABILITY: Local tomatoes should be in our warehouse by the week before July 4

th, as was the case last year. Thanks

to Cedar Meadow Farms’ high tunnels, we can pretty much know when we will have them on a consistent basis. For more information on Steve’s high tunnels, please see the more about tomatoes section below.

BREAKING CASES: Kegel’s Produce will have local tomatoes, plum tomatoes and yellow tomatoes by the pound and cherry, pear and grape tomatoes by the each. Green and heirloom tomatoes will only be sold by the case in 2012. If 15 pounds are too much, we have introduced a ten-pound pack of heirloom tomatoes to help shrink.

MORE ABOUT TOMATOES

CEDAR MEADOW FARM – THE HIGH TUNNELS: Most of the local tomatoes we get throughout the year come from the high tunnels at Cedar Meadow farm. Steve Groff estimates that he has thirteen acres under cover and over 8,000 tomato plants in those tunnels, all of which are well protected from diseases and bugs.

Late April – A small tomato

plant begins to grow in the high tunnels at Cedar Meadow Farms.

Late May – A series of days with above average

temperatures have allowed the tomatoes in the tunnels to grow extremely fast in just the

short time that they have been in the ground.

Early July – Just eight weeks later, plants are producing

fruit and cases are available for purchase. Steve’s tunnels allow for harvests up to three

weeks earlier than normal plants would.

Early July – These heirloom

tomatoes are 90% mature.

These are one of Steve’s 30+ varieties.

NOTES:

ADDITIONAL NOTES: We do have more local codes in our system. Some items we did not put on this list due to the uncertainty that we may or may not have them available during the season. Customer service agents can check in GSS for more codes by using the word “LOCAL” where a product number can be entered.
