HARRISBURG, PA – State agriculture officials gathered in York County on Friday to announce the theme for the 2023 Farm Show.
Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding said the theme for the 107th Pennsylvania Farm Show, which will be held at the Farm Show Complex in Harrisburg from Jan. 7-14, will be “Rooted in Progress.”
This year’s theme “honors our roots and vision for the future,” Redding said, adding that the theme is a “nod to the progress made for agriculture in the commonwealth during the Wolf Administration.”
“We were ‘Harvesting More’ in 2022 following a virtual year in 2021 during the pandemic – and now, we’re celebrating accomplishments in agriculture, while recognizing the agricultural drive and vision to innovate and inspire,” Redding said. “In 2023, we will be ‘Rooted in Progress.’”
In a statement, the department said the theme was chosen to “honor the deep roots of agriculture in Pennsylvania’s heritage, as well as the significant updates and pivots farmers and their families have made, and continue to make, to grow and adapt as markets, consumers, climate, and resources change.”
