Grateful to the farm lifestyle

Run Bear Ranch is a typical farm in the North-level.

These figures, because the owners Cliff and Margaret Bruszewski, but garden-variety farmers.

The name of the farm, at least, is justified. Margaret Cherokee parts and Native American grandfather told her to bear, because she is constantly on the road, "she said. Then lock the name as well, this happened:

"We have here one weekend before we moved here, we put the Christmas lights," Cliff said. "I looked across the street, black bear field he did not see or stop or anything, he ran away. Therefore, the name stuck."

Farmers the Cliff and Margarita hail, agriculture, hotbed of New York City.

"I grew up in Brooklyn," she said. "He proposed in Queens."

Margaret upscale Country Club on Long Island, and her five children. Cliff as a civilian, the New York City Police Department in charge of work. A former Marines, his first reaction after the 9/11 terrorist attacks to ground zero. He raised two children, and eventually followed his father, also from Queens, Bradford County.

He visited the region for 30 years or longer. After, he and Margaret to together, he took her to visit.

"We have been looking for a place to live," said Marguerite. "We go hiking in the mountains. Pisgah, I absolutely fell in love with this place. (Cliff)," I think this is what I said. "So I was right, so, we are here."

10 years ago, they bought the farm in 2006, moved there after a lot of trial and error, seems to have reached their pace. Now, the operation is only 10 acres.

The ceramic Zoo greet visitors and customers to pull into the lane on Wallace Road, Line 6 Warrington town northern Siberia. Ducks, chickens, sheep, robins, rabbits, small pigs, dogs, frogs, American Indian chief, a monk and odd garden gnome guards the yard.

A gas drilling pad loom to the south. On the deck of a new flag and flagpole grace, a new built-in the farmstand sitting nearby road.

It is hard to say what you will find in the running bear ranch, at a farmers' market to buy fresh collaborators, buying local projects, and regularly travel Wellsboro, Mansfield and Troy.

"We want to provide something different, unusual," said Marguerite. "This is what we did."

Celery, kohlrabi or something like that, yellow tomatoes. Rabbit and lamb. Rock Cornish broiler cliff vowed customers will never give up the factories processing the birds. Ducks and turkeys. And sausage. Tanned sheepskin.

Our unusual sausages, lamb: andouille sage, sausage, sausage, sweet Italian, "Cliff said. "We use all animals If an animal is to our lives, we use it all the stuff."

The cliff running bear farms relocation to let his life back after 9/11. The first at the scene after he worked there for several months, 12 hours, 12 hours of rest in the recovery process. At one point, the Police Department to his and other people's CD, including all emergency calls recorded in 911.

He said that this was a mistake in listening to it.

"Before this, I have never had a problem," he said. "Whether it is the case of fighting or other pressure, if you have a job you do, you do not think about it. Unsinkable terror.

"I put the CD in the computer, it destroys me," he said. "It makes me think of all the things I saw that day. Buildings there go I see something anyone should have to see."

Small farms, soil, biological, rural life and the "big neighbor" recovery he brought Margarita close to her ancestral roots.

They say, you can never go home. I hope so Bruszewskis.

, "Margaret said:" We find it difficult to return to New York. Night and day "different lifestyle we can not miss the crazy, rude, crazy in there". '

Cliff said: "We love what we do." "It is so fulfilling. Every day, we woke up, we thank God that we are able to do this, and we love what we do and we true happiness."

A small sign of the bit the farmstand provide information: "You do not have to be crazy work, they will train you in the warehouse."

Cliff and Margaret still happily untrained. And, especially in this season, is deeply appreciated.
