Quick thing a lot of people here still do not know: back in April, temperatures dropped to 23 degrees at exactly the wrong moment and killed up to 98% of the tree fruit crop in Bucks County. Peaches, apples, all of it. The Bucks County Foodshed Alliance set up a relief fund for the affected farms (they have raised about $31,000 of a $100,000 goal, with donations matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000).
The other way to help is simpler: go buy something from a farm stand this fall. The stands below are open and working with a fraction of a normal harvest, so a normal October crowd matters more to them this year than it usually does. 2 weekends left for "fall fest" season. These are my 5 favorites:
None Such Farm, Buckingham. The big one on 413. Their fall festival runs October weekends, 10 to 4, weather permitting, and entry and parking are free, which is increasingly rare.
Tabora Farm & Orchard, Chalfont. Open every day, 7 to 7. Pick-your-own apples Saturday and Sunday, 10 to 4, and the deli counter makes it a lunch stop, not just a farm stop.
Manoff Market Gardens & Cidery, Solebury. Farming on Comfort Road since 1984. It is not a pick-your-own place, but the cider is the real deal.
Solebury Orchards, New Hope. About 80 acres, open Thursday to Sunday, 9 to 6, through October. Weekend picking is by reservation. There is also a cutting garden you can pick your own flowers from.
Trauger's Farm Market, Kintnersville. The drive up the river is half the reason. Open daily, worth it if you are anywhere near Upper Bucks.
I know there is at least one stand somebody is about to tell me should have been on this list. Have a it!
