Planting season is here! This year, think about planting a little bit extra in your garden. It may be more than you need, but it might be just what someone else... needs. When it’s time to harvest, donate the extra to your local food bank! Helping the bees Good for the deer Feeding communities Pretty to see

You’ve seen brown and white eggs, but what about green, teal or even dark red? Maybe even spotted! What’s the difference? Some eggs may be more expensive in yo...ur local grocery store because of the chickens that lay them and their housing. But, there is no difference in nutrition, cooking or quality between these different colored eggs. They’re both yummy and compliment many meals. #EggMonth #FarmFactFriday

The Pennsylvania Agricultural Surplus System (PASS), has officially exceeded more than 20 million pounds of food! That’s 20 million pounds of fresh, locally pro...duced products put into the hands of those who need it most over the past five years. The PASS program helps to support Pennsylvania’s agriculture industry and reduce waste of agricultural surplus by making connections between production agriculture and the non-profit sector. In a state as agriculturally rich as Pennsylvania, no one should go hungry. Learn More: https://buff.ly/3axy2Xm
