Pennypack Farm & Education Center

We are excited to collaborate with the Montco Dept of Health and Human Services to provide CSA shares to families in the community who are in need, through the Nourish Montco initiative. Everyone deserves access to healthy, fresh produce!

Everyone meet our newest summer crew member - one of our 2021 farm interns, Suzy! When she isn't here at the farm, Suzy enjoys reading and playing with her two dogs. She is looking forward to tomato season and getting to meet the community of the farm. If you see her around, make sure to give her a warm welcome!... #pennypackfarm #meetyourfarmer #womenwhofarm #knowyourfarmer #knowyourfarmerknowyourfood

Sunrise crimson clover and the matching farm truck. Soil health is a long and important journey: This crimson clover cover crop was planted after our tomatoes last year in the fall, went quiet for the winter, and flushed with new growth and blooms this spring. Cover crops help build healthy soil and keep the soil in place over winter. When we turn this under, it will provide amazing nutrition to the fall brassicas we will plant here later this summer. #regenerativeagriculture #knowyourfarmerknowyourfood
