Our Mission: To provide information, referrals and consultations to farmers, for plans that will secure and maintain farming�s important role in Pennsylvania�s economy.
Our Vision: For the Center to join with farmers to actively engage in comprehensive planning that will address all aspects of their vocation. Through this joint planning effort, we will continue the legacy of innovative responses to challenges, to remain competitive in today�s economy, while enhancing natural resources for future generations.
Our Role: When a farmer is planning a transition, there are a lot of obvious, and some not-so-obvious, considerations. In some cases, the resources needed may be difficult to secure.
