During the eight day farm show on January 5-12, young visitors can become "Farm Show Detectives."
The detectives will use a special map to visit 28 interactive stations. At the stations, they will discover where their food comes from.
“While having fun, they’re also meeting the men, women and animals behind the state’s leading economic driver. It’s a great way to experience the Pennsylvania Farm Show," said Agriculture Secretary George Greig.
The stations will feature things like 4-H, alpacas, apples, beef and veal, bees and honey, beetles and bugs, biomass, the butter sculpture, dairy, dogs, edible nuts, environment, farm equipment, and farmland preservation.
Visitors who participate in the program, will also be entered to win prizes sponsored by Turkey Hill. After finishing at all the stations, turn the map in at the Department of Agriculture booth to enter. Detectives who visit at least 15 learning stations are eligible to win the grand prize – one year of free ice cream.
Each day five winners receive Turkey Hill party packs and one takes home a cow or truck replica.
The stations are open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Jan. 5-11, and until 5 p.m. Jan. 12.
