A3B-Ltnca»ter Farming, Saturday, December 5, 1998 EVERETT NEWSWANGER Managing Editor HARRISBURG (Dauphin Co.)— Officials of eight Pen nsylvania commodity groups met at the Farm Show Complex Thurs day meaning to witness the grand opening of a new year-round food serving area just inside the main exhibition hall at the front door. Named the “Keystone Kafc,“ the new food area is designed to serve Pennsylvania food products to the thousands of people who visit the complex to attend exhibitions that are held throughout the year. Pennsylvania's agriculture sec retary Samuel Hayes Jr., con ducted the event saying people traditionally expect good food at the farm show. Now it will be pos sible for good food to be offered at all exhibitions throughout the year. “I am very pleased the Farm Show staff worked with the Pen nsylvania commodity groups to make it possible to give sharper focus to the foods that are produced here,” Hayes said. “Our new state theme “Agriculture Products for the Planct“ causes us to think glob ally, which we must. But we must also play good at home. When you he. 7 strong commodity groups as \. Lave in Pennsylvania you can’t help but play good at home.” The new food vending area is managed by a newly formed com pany called the Pennsylvania Agri culture Company. This company is comprised of the Pennsylvania Dairymen’s Association; Pen nsylvania Livestock Association; Pennsylvania Bakers Association; Pennsylvania Potato Grow ers; Pennsylvania State Beekeepers Association; Pennsylvania Mushroom Growers Association; and the State Horticulture Association of Pen nsylvania. The commodity groups that partici pate in the food court at the Pennsylvania Farm Show will continue as in the past Dave Smith, who represents the Dairymen’s Association is the president of the new company. He said the goal of the new Keystone Kafc is to facilite the commodity organizations* food ser vice to the large number of visitors to the Farm Show Complex each year. In addition, these commodity groups fund research, product deve lopment, educational programs and youth prog rams that will be supported by the profits from this venture.
