Coat Drive for the Caring Place

Saturday, November 28 through Sunday, December 4

Clover Hill Vineyards & Winery

So often we go to our closet and try to decide which coat we are going to wear for the day. Did you know there are many people, young and old, in our own back yards that do not have ANY coat to reach for to keep themselves warm? Clover Hill be collecting gently used coats of any size (from babies to adults) to be donated to The Caring Place, in Allentown. Last year The Caring Place supplied over 2,000 coats to those in need, so lets all work together to replenish their stock. The Caring Place is a youth development center that reaches out to youth in the Lehigh Valley who may be facing adversity. The Caring Place enables young people to overcome the pressures and disadvantages of their environment. For your donation of a coat Clover Hill will offer you a toasty warm 10% discount on your wine purchase (20% on case purchases) throughout this week of giving.

The Belsnickel, the Pennsylvania German counterpart to St. Nick, will visit with the children in the Schoolhouse, making certain they’re on their best behavior. The historic buildings on the grounds will be dressed in their holiday finery, and filled with many demonstrators and artisans. Set your eyes on our many decorated Christmas trees and Christmas Putz, a miniature village and manger scene beneath the Christmas tree, a Pennsylvania German tradition. Smell the aroma of Pennsylvania Dutch hearth-cooked food in the kitchen. Listen to the sweet music of the Carolers, as they roam the farm singing classic Christmas tunes in the Pennsylvania German dialect. Craftsmen from the Reading Berks Guild of Craftsmen will sell their wares and demonstrate their arts in the Corrigan log cabin, where you will find the most unique gifts to give this holiday season. The Old Time Plow Boys will have their kitchen open, so be sure to stop by and get a warm bite to eat. They also will have farm equipment demonstrations throughout the day.
