Sharon’s Hot Milk Cake has
become a favorite of my sons,
Scott and Eric, as well as their
father. Our dairy farm is located
in Northampton County. We
have 104 milking and dry regis
tered Holsteins and about 115 re
placement heifers.
My husband David and sons
farm about 425 acres of corn, al
falfa, and small grains, all of
which are fed on the farm.
Our daughter Julie Ann and
son-in-law Brent live in Conneti
cut and are always a bid help
when they come home for a
weekend.
For many years, 4-H and open
showing plus many other 4-H
projects have been part of our
kids’ lives. This is my 38th year
as a 4-H leader with the Horse
and Pony Club, horse judging,
and hipology coaching, as well as
community club.

We live on a dairy farm,
south of Annville, Lebanon Co.
We have four children at home
and two married. At the present,
we are milking only 63 cows,
have only a few calves, but have
quite a few dry cows to freshen in
a few months. We raise all of our
heifers. Farming is busy, yet very
worthwhile. Edna Horning

My husband and I are retired.
We are not farmers. I now live in
South Carolina but was raised in
Maryland. We go to Maryland
about four times a year to see my
son and sister.
While there we attend auctions
in and around Maryland and
Pennsylvania. For our enjoy
ment, we buy and sell at auctions
in South Carolina and Georgia.
While in Pennsylvania, I was
wrapping glassware and obtained
a copy of the Lancaster Farming
paper. I just loved it, so when I
returned home, I called and sub
scribed to it. My favorites are (of
course) recipes and the question
and answer column. When we
are planning a trip that way, I
check out auctions that we would
like to attend.
When in the Lancaster area,
we go to the Amish markets. I
always bring home chipped beef
and scrapple.
