Family-Owned Fruit Farm Produces Fresh, Food-Focused Blog to Provide Recipes

May 15, 2010 -- Since the early 1900’s Kauffman’s Fruit Farm & Market has

yielded bushels of plump, orchard-ripened fruits just outside the quaint town of Bird-in-Hand, Pa. Today, the family-owned business is pleased to announce their latest production, www.BulkFoodJournal.com. Developed as an informational counterpart to KauffmansFruitFarm.com, the company’s original web store, this interactive blog will be used to provide readers with an abundance of knowledge about bulk foods, including nutritional value, highlights of new products and best sellers as well as recipes for bulk food items.

“To our knowledge, we have the largest online selection of random-packed bulk foods in the nation,” said Lonnie Kauffman, the company’s data systems manager.

Additionally, Kauffman’s Fruit Farm & Market created a second blog, www.AppleButterBlog.com, to educate readers about orchard management and cultivation as well as the savory selection of homemade apple cider, fruit butters, dried apples and more.

Visit www.KauffmansFruitFarm.com today to pick up a delicious bundle of crisp red and green apples hand-picked from orchard trees. Available in packets of 18, 36 and 54, each shipment is carefully packed into an eggshell-like container fit with individual nooks for each apple to prevent shifting during delivery.

Online shoppers may also choose from homemade apple cider, apple snitz, a variety of fruit butters, baking supplies, assorted beverages, canned goods, honey, maple syrup, jams, jellies and more. A selection of organic foods and Dutch country favorites may also be purchased.

“Our homemade, sweet apple cider won first place in a cider competition at the 2010 Mid-Atlantic Fruit & Vegetable Convention,” Kauffman said.

Local and nearby residents are encouraged to stop by Kauffman’s market, deli and grocery to indulge in a more fruitful selection of fresh produce in season - peaches, pears, plums, and cherries – from the orchard that’s much too delicate to ship.

“The first fruit trees planted in our family orchard were planted by my great great grandpa, Amos L. Kauffman in 1911. Kauffman’s Fruit Farm has continued to flourish throughout the decades and today it’s operated by third, fourth and fifth generation family members,” Kauffman said.

Schwarzenegger Opposes Efforts to Regulate Nutrition and Dietary Supplements (a PMG Report)

Columbus, OH PMG Report: In Columbus for his annual "Arnold Sports Festival", Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger was asked to comment on recent

political developments that have threatened to impact the multi-billion dollar sports nutrition and supplementation industry. During a live telecast of the event, host Dan Solomon asked Schwarzenegger about Washington's involvement in the nutrition and supplementation industry. The Governor responded, "Because the special interests, the pharmaceuticals, have been trying to make the legislators and the politicians in Washington always go and regulate food supplements and the nutrition business. And every five years you see an attack like that."

During the interview, carried live on the popular Bodybuilding.com website (and aired later on the "Pro Bodybuilding Weekly" radio program), Schwarzenegger tells Solomon, "It's all about who pushes harder and who screams the loudest. The squeaky wheels get the grease, that's the thing. So, when we saw Senator McCain going in that direction and align himself with the pharmaceuticals, the nutrition business in America has pushed back, big time. And now Senator Hatch came in and he's now working with McCain, and McCain already has announced that he's gonna step back from that bill to regulate the food supplements and he's gonna re-write it and he's gonna work with Senator Hatch, which is extraordinary. I'm very happy about this new development."

The former bodybuilding champion's comments were made on March 6th, during his "Arnold Sports Festival", an event that is promoted as the largest Multi-Sport Event in the Nation. Sylvester Stallone was also on hand to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award, presented by Schwarzenegger.
