It was an honor to visit Penn State's @agsciences Progress Days to speak about our work for farmers & rural communities in the Senate, especially the upcoming Farm Bill.
We need a Farm Bill that works for ALL farmers across the commonwealth.
Government should be a support to businesses and farmers — not a barrier.
We're moving at the speed of business and we're making key investments in ag in our bipartisan budget.
From the PA Farm Bill to the Organic Center of Excellence to the Fresh Food Financing initiative, we are delivering.
Pennsylvanian agriculture is summed up in 3 words: Science, Innovation, and Technology.
Thank you @PAAgriculture Secretary Redding and @agsciences Dean Roush for joining my #AgProgressDay listening session!
Pennsylvania has a proud agricultural heritage, but not enough of us have access to fresh, affordable, Pennsylvanian-grown food every day.
With a $2 million investment in the Fresh Food Financing Initiative, we are strengthening the connection between our farmers and our markets and grocery stories — and putting healthy and affordable food on Pennsylvanians' dinner tables.
Universal free breakfast puts every kid on the same playing field.
That’s what good, commonsense government looks like.
Together, we solved a problem and we're making people’s lives better.
Yesterday, Secretary Redding attended @CongressmanGT's Ag Summit held in Bellefonte.
The conversation focused on how the challenges faced within #PAagriculture can be directly answered through the opportunities we have in science, technology, and innovation.

August is #PAProduceMonth! This is the perfect time to celebrate fresh produce grown around the Commonwealth as over 30 different fruits and vegetables are in season this month.

Our franchise remembers the life and legacy of longtime AAABA administrator, Past President, and former Executive Director John Austin, who passed away shortly after last year’s tournament. All teams in this year’s tournament are wearing JA decals on their helmets in his memory.
As demand for organically grown food continues to increase, Pennsylvania is ready to capitalize on the trend and to become a leader in the organic sector.

By ensuring that every Pennsylvanian has accessible, reliable, affordable internet is a big deal that will take all of us working together.
We can do it — and we will get high speed internet to every corner of our Commonwealth.
The Pennsylvania Broadband Development Authority (PBDA) is gathering public input from community members including residents, businesses, and organizations on the draft five-year action plan to expand internet access across the Commonwealth.

What an awesome story about an amazing young girl. Set your mind to something and you can accomplish it. Glad to see that @psuextension helped this girl achieve her goal. Our online classes are leading the way!

There are at least 12,500 locations with slow or no internet in Erie and Warren counties — and more than 325,000 locations with slow or no service in our Commonwealth.
Lack of reliable, high speed internet isn’t a rural or urban problem — it’s a Pennsylvania problem.
