We are looking for volunteers for our Farm Day in Town Field Trip for area first graders. The CFWMC is bringing the PA Mobile Ag Lab back to the Warehouse, and we'll also have activities inside the warehouse as well. We'll have a group here for a morning session and another for an afternoon session, each of the five days. We ask that you plan to be available from 9 am-11: 30 and from 11:40-2:00 pm for the afternoon session. You are welcome to sign up for more than one session, if you are able.
