Pittsford Rotary Food Drive April 5th, 2025

Tue, 01 Apr 2025 14:39:07 +0000

Rotary Club’s Next Drive-thru Food Drive is April 5

The Rotary Club of Pittsford’s next drive-thru food drive is scheduled Saturday (April 5) from 9 am to noon at the Pittsford Sutherland High School bus loop. In addition to the Pittsford Food Cupboard, donations also will support Joseph’s Place and the Nazareth University Oak Tree Food Pantry. Rotarians and Interact Club members will be collecting at the drive rain or shine.

The Pittsford Food Cupboard plays a crucial role in addressing food insecurity within our community. Donations help ensure that local families have access to essential food items and will promote well-being and stability. Though all food items are needed, the cupboard’s most needed current items are cereal; spaghetti sauce and pasta; hearty soups, chili or stew; meals in a can (pasta and meat); tuna, chicken or other canned meat; dish soap; and bathroom tissue. The cupboard also maintains a list of current needs.

Joseph’s Place is small food pantry serving residents living in the Cathedral neighborhood of Rochester who experience food insecurity. The pantry operates on an all volunteer staff.

The Oak Tree Pantry serves those with food insecurity in the Nazareth community. The pantry has an ongoing need for granola bars, pasta, peanut butter, soap and other hygiene products.

The drive also will collect donations of gently used, current magazines for distribution to area human service organizations.

Additional information is available at pittsfordrotaryclub.org.

April 1st! Jokes or not? How about not getting a home inspection when you should've.

Thu, 27 Mar 2025 18:31:47 +0000

During these past few years, thanks to the whole pandemic mess, homebuyers were 'pretty much talked out' of getting home inspections. Well, guess what? Once they did close, and moved in, homeowners were finding all kinds of problems with the house. So now they're in a real dilemma, they ended up in a bidding war to get the house so were over-extended with any monies they saved up and a sky high mortgage payment. Therefore, finding problems that are going to cost a lot of money to repair or replace, and there's no money left. Many of these issues are unsafe. A home inspection by Jim Salmon would have found a lot of these problems and added a value to repairs so the buyer would be well informed.

Since the market is slowly starting to change, be sure to get a home inspection before you finalyze the purchase. Even if problems are found at least knowing about them is so important, especially financially.

One quick story, someone put in an offer on a house out of state, sight unseen, except for pictures the realtor put in an ad. So Jim goes out of state to inspect this house. So many things were wrong. The actual description of the type of build of the house was incorrect, there was evidence previous high water levels inside, amatuer patching of exterior damage, rotting wood, old mechanics, shared systems, and on and on. Offer was pulled, the repair costs would have been over $100,000.00! Isn't that crazy? Be smart, be informed before spending THE MOST MONEY in your life!

These purchases happen locally all too often.

So now is a great time to contact Crossfield 585-872-4420, to service your furnace after running all winter, and maintaining your current A/C or installing new for your comfort this summer.

Coler Insulation - tired of high heat bills?

Tue, 25 Mar 2025 16:02:59 +0000

Is your furnace running practically non-stop? Are your heating bills through the roof? Well, literally, your heat just may be doing that! Going right up through the roof! Why? No insulation in the attic? Or maybe what's up there just is so inefficient it's not working as it should. Just think about spray foam insulation. Spray foam can get into crevices that rolled insulation, obviously - can't. You can have the attic floor spray foamed and especially under the roof. This will seal up any air leaks and you'll notice the difference practically instantly! Already the heat is staying in the house! Not escaping up and out. So what you need to do is call Coler Insulation 585-217-9069 and have a discussion with them about all the options and areas that will help keep your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer! Seriously, you will notice the difference and in your heating and cooling bills.

Brodner Equipment has lots of great mowers and more!

Tue, 18 Mar 2025 15:49:17 +0000

So excited spring is coming! Now is the time to head to Brodner's for a new mower! They have such a wide selection - something for everyone! No matter if you have a smaller yard or acres, there's one for you! The Exmark can cut hours off your mowing time, if your current mower takes you half the day, an Exmark takes a lot less! The cut is perfect even if you're 'moving'!

The most important thing about Brodner's, their service. You can pick up a cheap mower in the big box stores but what happens when something breaks? Certainly not getting the big box to repair it. At Brodner's the quality is so much better and if by any chance, something breaks (yes, you ran into a tree) they can fix it - no problem!

They also have a system that you can have them pick up your mower in the fall, service it, store it for the winter and return it to you in the spring. You certainly don't get that anywhere! Customer service at the best, they are knowledgeable, helpful and experienced.
