The slogan of Lehigh Cooperative Farmers -- “LeHi -- where it’s happening!" --
held true this week when the 750-member group held its annual meeting in
Allentown. Prior to the luncheon, the co-op’s officers presented their annual
reports which were accompanied with multi-projection slides of LeHi’s opera
tions and history. They received the approval and favor of the audience.
