HARRISBURG, Pa. (RFD NEWS) — One of the highlights of this year’s Pennsylvania Farm Show was an investment in the next generation of agriculture. Twenty-one scholarships were awarded to 4-H and FFA students pursuing college degrees in agricultural fields, including Elizabeth Dice.
Elizabeth Dice, a first-generation beef cattle producer from Fayette County, joined us on Friday’s Market Day Report to share her background in agriculture and discuss her experiences in 4-H and FFA.
