AGROLEGACY MEANS CERTIFIED LOCAL
AGROLEGACY SUPPORTS FARM FAMILIES
The AgroLegacy™ Program of the Wayne Tomorrow! Agriculture Task Force certifies food and agricultural products grown or raised on farms in Wayne County, Pennsylvania.
A TRUSTED LABEL
Bordered by the fertile Delaware River valley to the east, Wayne County, PA is filled with summits and streams that provide water to rich, nutrient-dense soil for a sustainable agricultural system.
Generations of native people, dairy farmers, foresters, and our own families, have relied on the beauty of this region to produce food and raw materials for our farm and artisan businesses.
AgroLegacy is designed as a trusted label that helps buyers and shoppers know when they are spending their dollars to the benefit of local family farms and communities.
We are all a part of the AgroLegacy.
