About PA Organic Field Day
The first field day was held in the summer of 2017 . It was attended by 50 farmers and a handful of vendors from Pennsylvania and other states. Today, this event is moved around PA showcasing Organic crop farmers in PA . Farmers deal with a wide variation of challenges to grow good Organic Food and Feed. The seed to have a field day such as this was born to get farmers ,vendors , and buyers together and learn from each other. The vendors also show their appreciation to their customers and potential customers at the hands on field day with products and equipment. In 2022 we served over 200 people for lunch . You are Welcome to come and learn or share your experiences if you are wanting to know more , are an organic farmer, vendor, or buyer of organics.
