friends of the farmhouse
the farmhouse (b & bjazz, inc.) is a 501c3 non-profit corporation in the state of Pennsylvania, and as such depends upon the support of so many to keep the doors open. We know that if we all do just a little bit, there will be great benefit for all. we are grateful to everyone who has supported the mission of the retreat in the many ways each has, from time, service, instruments, furniture—from loose change to over $500 donations. All are welcome and most needed!
