SCFB has been gathering suggestions from its members for policy resolutions on issues important to agriculture and rural living. Its Policy Development Committee will be presenting resolutions for discussion and voting during this annual meeting. Policies adopted by Farm Bureau guide its local, state and national governmental relations work during the next year.

The Susquehanna County Dairy Princess will be welcoming attendees. Michael Webb, Susquehanna County Conservation Officer will be guest speaker. We will be presenting a “Friend of Agriculture” award to Congressman Chris Carney. If he is available to attend, we will present this same award to Senator Robert Casey.
