December Vance Show Focuses on Dairy Farm

HARRISBURG – Sen. Pat Vance's (R-Cumberland/York) December edition of the Vance Report features one of the largest dairy farms in Cumberland County.

The 30-minute program tours Cummingsville Farm in Penn Township owned by David and Victor Barrick. The Barricks milk 500 Holstein cows and farm 770 acres.

"Agriculture is Pennsylvania's number one industry," Vance said. "Farmers invest thousands of dollars in equipment and animals and work untold hours. This program provides insight into the rigors of work as a farmer."

Vance's show airs on Blue Ridge Communications at 6 p.m. on Tuesdays on Channel 8. Comcast Cable that serves the Shippensburg area will air the program at 4 p.m. on Thursdays on Channel 21. Comcast Cable that serves the Carlisle area will air the show at the same time but on Channel 11. York Community Access shows the program at 9 p.m. on the second Tuesday of the month on Channel 16. Finally, Comcast Cable in the Greater Harrisburg area will air the program on Channel 20 with no set time schedule.

Vance's district includes all of Cumberland County and Carroll, Fairview, Franklin, Monaghan, Warrington and Washington townships and Dillsburg, Franklintown and Wellsville boroughs in York County.
