This summer, Pennsylvanians can beat the heat and get a sweet treat by visiting any of the 30 creameries that make up the 2022 Scooped: An Ice Cream Trail. Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) Acting Secretary Neil Weaver, Deputy Secretary of Tourism, Film & Marketing Carrie Fischer Lepore, and Department of Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding visited Perrydell Farm and Dairy in York County to sprinkle some summer fun and kick off the fifth annual Ice Cream Trail."Nothing is sweeter than supporting our small businesses and the dairy industry," said Acting Secretary Weaver. "The Wolf Administration is proud to celebrate this important industry and some very tasty treats. Pennsylvanians and visitors to the commonwealth should stop by the excellent creameries featured on the trail and join us in scooping up some summer fun!"Launched in 2018, the Pennsylvania ice cream trail is a partnership between the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and its PA Preferred® program, DCED's Tourism Office, and the Center for Dairy Excellence. The trail offers a delicious way to support Pennsylvania's more than 5,200 dairy farm families and the small businesses that source from them while offering a unique opportunity to explore the commonwealth by the scoop.Speakers Include:Carrie Fischer Lepore, Film and Marketing, Department of Community and Economic DevelopmentDonna Perry, Perrydell Farm and DairyActing Secretary Neil Weaver, Department of Community and Economic DevelopmentSecretary Russell Redding, Agriculture
