Remember back in January, when I was talking about chow-chow?

Well, that sprung from some discussion on The Exchange about this local pickled favorite, sparked by member Strahan.

Well, a while after that, I got a letter from "J. Wolf" in Dallastown, who wrote: "If Strahan is interested in really great chow-chow - go to the Country Table in Mount Joy. A short drive for really delicious chow-chow."

If you want to know more, check out that Exchange topic. Strahan ended up buying five different kinds in Lancaster and York counties and doing a taste-test, and you'll be happy to know that it was a York-made product that won!

My name is Joan and I'm a lifelong Yorker. Throughout high school and college, I swore I was getting out of here as soon as possible. Now, a few years later, I can't think of anywhere I'd rather be. I love my town. And, as a local editor, I hear every day how much you love your towns, too. So please, connect with me and let's share what makes life in York County great. I'm here to help you enjoy this place as much as I do!
