It's more than
refreshing
when
experience
is put first.
We pride ourselves on our
intimate knowledge of local
markets, enabling us to provide
support to our growers at
all stages of production.

Extension honors
The association also bestowed Distinguished
Service Awards posthumously to Sinclair Adam, who
died in April 2023, and Thomas Ford, who died in
December 2023.
Adam, a Penn State floricultural Extension
educator for nine years and director of the Penn
State Flower Trials at Landisville, spearheaded
efforts to help plan greenhouse ornamental sessions
at the convention. Flynn said his legacy can be seen
during the flower trials.
Ford was a commercial horticulture educator for
41 years, including the last 31 years at Pennsylvania
State University. Ford also had been county Extension
directors in Maryland and North Carolina. He assisted
growers in transitioning to high-value horticultural
crops and worked with Central Pennsylvania's Amish
and Mennonite growers, according to Flynn
The association also recognized the PVGA Young
Grower Andrew Gadomski, who, with his wife,
operates Kim and Andrew's Farm Market. The
farm stand opened in 2016 with pumpkins and has
expanded to include a variety of vegetables.
