Shapiro Administration Continues a Summer of Sweet, Made in PA Getaways on Scooped: An Ice Cream Trail

On the heels of Governor Josh Shapiro's tour to launch The Great American Getaway, Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding and Department of Community and Economic Development (DCED) Executive Deputy Secretary Mike Hanna, Jr. had a sweet start to their summer at Merrymead Farm, one of 41 creameries across Pennsylvania on Scooped: An Ice Cream Trail.

"No summer getaway is complete without a scoop of ice cream from a Pennsylvania creamery," Secretary Redding said. "Knowing you're supporting one of Pennsylvania's more than 4,000 dairy farms just sweetens the adventure."

Launched in 2018, Scooped: An Ice Cream Trail, is a partnership of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and its PA Preferred® program, DCED's Tourism Office, and the Center for Dairy Excellence.

List of Speakers:
Merrymead Farm Market Manager Kelsey Givler
DCED Executive Deputy Secretary Mike Hanna, Jr.
Tom DiBello, Montgomery County Board of Commissioners
Pennsylvania Senator Maria Collett
Pennsylvania House Majority Leader Matthew Bradford
Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding
