PA Farm Show
A look at Berks County agriculture at the 2026 Pennsylvania Farm Show from student achievement to family farms. Berks CTC East FFA student Elena Lewis earned first place in Floral Designs, while Kutztown FFA showcased the restoration of a 1948 John Deere B—donated by the Marberger family after decades of work on their farm. Crowd favorites included Swartz Farm’s Kiss-A-Cow booth, the Steinmetz Family Farm baby goat snuggling stand, and the PA Dairymen’s Association celebrating America’s 250th birthday with three flavors of milkshakes. On the livestock side, Grateful Acres of Barto earned Grand Champion Non-Auction Fleece with their Valais Blacknose sheep, Lazy-Day Farm of Boyertown featured Babydoll Southdown sheep, and Mikan Holsteins of Leesport, SMAK-B Farm of Hamburg, and Green Hill Acres of Oley all represented Berks County proudly.
