Farm Sets County Fair Week

Hope Springs Farm, 201 Trail Road, Hershey, will offer a virtual County Fair Week from Monday, Sept. 14, to Friday, Sept. 18.

Due to COVID-19, local county fairs in which growers usually participate have been canceled. Typically, growers have the opportunity to submit their harvested fruits and vegetables to the fairs, as well as interact with animals. Hope Springs Farm aims to bring that opportunity to them on the farm through a week of friendly competition and special activities.

The festivities will be broadcasted through daily Zoom parties from 1 to 2 p.m. that week. Some activities will include taking growers' animals on parades, playing carnival games, and baking special fair treats.

Donations are needed to help to make these weeklong festivities happen, as all of Hope Springs Farm's fundraisers so far this year have been canceled.
