Visit Us At Penn State Altoona This Week


Visit Us At Penn State Altoona for Ag Awareness Day This Week

We invite everyone to come out and visit us and our fellow growers at Penn State Altoona on Thursday April 20 from 10am-2pm for Ag Awareness Day. Located in and around the Slep Student Center.

Stop by to learn more about the College of Agricultural Sciences, view student presentations, and displays, and see some of Altoona’s clubs and organization’s in action. You can browse local products at the Farmer’s Market, eat free Berkey Creamery ice cream, and take a camel ride!

Be sure to bring a box of cereal to support the Cereal Drive which benefits the St. Vincent DePaul Food Pantry.

We will soon have asparagus and rhubarb to add to the market. Many of our other fresh herbs will also soon be large enough to harvest.

Clover Creek Cheese Cellar announced that they are currently sold out of Pirate Blue and will possibly be returning the end of May.

We announced last week the addition of Heritage Hills Farm as a new grower. They suffered a fire in their smokehouse the day we made the announcement and have been dealing with that. They will be adding their products in the near future. Please stay tuned.
