CAMP HILL, Pa. — Pennsylvania Farm Bureau will host a variety of activities at its exhibit area during the 96th Pennsylvania Farm Show, Jan. 7-14, at the Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg.

All who participate in “Which Sheep are Ewe” will be given a sheep head visor (while supplies last) as well as an informational take-home page.
Farm Bureau’s Promotion and Education Committee will oversee its “Wheel of Food,” which is an educational display that tests a person’s knowledge of where their food comes from.
Current issues in ag. Background information on current issues impacting Pennsylvania agriculture will be available at PFB’s Farm Show location, along with representatives of the Farm Bureau.
PFB’s exhibit area (Exhibit 102) is located in Exposition Hall near the main Food Court.
New exhibit
