Martin Insurance Agency

It doesn’t matter if you consider yourself a millennial or part of Gen Z, shopping for insurance is an important task. You want to make sure you have the right coverage AND you want to make sure there is someone there to help and advise if you ever need to make a claim.

After being closed for over a year (for obvious reasons) we are excited to see Landis Valley Village and Farm Museum has reopened their doors to the public on April 30. Landis Valley is a living history museum and is part of the Pennsylvania State Museum system. It preserves the cultural history and artifacts of the Pennsylvania Germans in Lancaster County, and celebrates the things that were invented here like the Conestoga wagon and Pennsylvania long rifle. It is a marvelous place to take children and/or guests who are visiting from outside the area. Currently, the grounds are open Friday & Saturday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM and Sunday Noon to 4:00 PM. Closed Monday through Thursday. Admission: Adults $12, Seniors & AAA members $10, Children 3-11 $8

It's fun fact Friday and we are sharing some really wild insurance claims that have been filed throughout the world. Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Just one week away from the Arch Street Center's Fishbowl Fundraiser. Have a look!

I made my annual spring flower-buying trip yesterday to Funk’s Riverview Greenhouse at 2277 River Road in Washington Boro, PA. They are a family owned and operated business for four generations. Dan and Breanne Funk - the father and daughter team who own and manage the business - are friends and clients of mine and have an outstanding selection of annuals, perennials, herbs, and hanging floral baskets. Breanne’s knowledge of plants and flowers is amazing and she will gladly h...elp you select just what you need to make your flowerbeds and garden stunning all spring and summer long. And while you are there, perhaps you’ll get to say hello to her dog River. . . #greenhouses #gardencenter #gardencenter #plantingtime #springflowers #lancastercounty #pennsylvania #padutch #springflowers #greenhouse #greenhouses #greenhouselife #plantingflowers #gardeninglove #gardeninglovers #gardenersworld #gardeners #gardenerslife #gardenersofinstagram #instagardeners #familybusiness #smallbusiness #buylocal #supportyourlocal #supportlocalbusiness #supportlocalbusinesses #martininsurance #martininsuranceagency See more
