Despite the rain, many community members came out on Saturday to support the 6th Annual Farm Tour sponsored by PASA and Buy Fresh Buy Local.
Student intern Katherine Grofic visited three farms on the soggy day and captured several photos from each. Continue reading to see the slideshow.
The mules at Beiler Family Farm in Spring Mills seemed to enjoy the rain. Even the chickens, goats, geese, and cows were out to greet visitors.

Mt. Nittany Winery was founded 21 years ago. Both real and synthetic cork and oak barrels are used to store wines.
