Foxwood Farm not too far up the road at Running Stream seems to do well, but their bakery goods are sold on outlets in Lithgow and other places as well. Likewise the Whisk and Pin at Medlow Bath does not depend only on the local operation but also on selling their goods by mail order.Joan Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16358008925558240778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139161043677921966.post-52940407690141070802011-07-28T22:07:12.288+10:002011-07-28T22:07:12.288+10:00I love that style of railway building with the ove...I love that style of railway building with the overhanging verandah.
