The 2025 Annual Meeting will be Thursday, Nov. 20, at 5 p.m. in Spring Mills. Members will vote on a proposed update of by laws and a slate of Trustees. Following the brief business meeting, regional planners join us for a discussion about growth in Centre County, highway expansion and the future of our farmland. RSVP required.
As Centre County grows, how will we keep our farmland?
So far, our Centre County community has supported and done a lot of hard work to retain and preserve its farmland as our population has grown. Now, with a major highway expansion on the horizon, how will we keep our farmland that contributes so much to our quality of life?
Regional planners join us for a discussion of how future growth and highway expansion may impact our farmland, what’s in place (or lacking) to protect it — and what we can all do to protect and preserve our farmland. This discussion immediately follows a short, annual business meeting of members of the Centre County Farmland Trust at 5 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 20 at the Old Gregg School, 106 School Street in Spring Mills.
RSVP is required. Seats are held for members to reserve by Oct. 24. CCFT members have given $50 or more in the last year and are receiving email invitations Oct. 10.
Remaining seats are open to the public on Oct. 27. Light refreshments will be served. Read on for more details about the meeting agenda. (If you have any questions about your membership, please email CCFT.)
