Farmer Day at the Pennsylvania Farm Show
Presented by Scott Arboretum of Swarthmore College at Scott Arboretum of Swarthmore College
January 13, 2010
Since colonial days, farmers have gathered to share information about their crops and livestock and compare notes on cultivation methods. Pennsylvania's founder, William Penn, organized an agricultural show in Philadelphia as early as 1686. Today the show is comprised of one million square feet of space under one continuous roof – the annual Pennsylvania Farm Show is the largest indoor agricultural event in the United States. It continues to focus on excellence in agriculture and provides over $300,000 in premiums to winning participants. You’ll start the morning touring with the executive staff of the Farm Show. Lunch offers a variety of Pennsylvania products, from mushrooms to trout chowder to honey ice cream. There will also be plenty of time to explore the activities of Farmer Day on your own. Travel will be in a large coach bus. Registration is limited to 35. Lunch will be on your own in the Farm Show Food Court.
