This tour will visit each of the University's Research Farms at the Rock Springs facility. Farm managers will present a brief overview of the farm history, current research, and student involvement as well as try to answer participant questions.
The Farm Tours are an informal way to get a sense about what research the College of Agriculture is doing on the farms and why these farms are critical labs for the faculty and staff at Penn State.
Bus leaves Daily at 9:30 a.m. and 12:00 p.m. with an additional tour on Wednesday at 2:00 p.m.
*Note: Minimal walking involved. No restrooms available.
