McCurdy's Spotlighted in Vance Program

HARRISBURG – The December edition of the Vance Report focuses on McCurdy's Tree Farm and Landscaping in Carroll Township, York County, said host Sen. Pat Vance (R-Cumberland/York).

The family-owned and operated business, which began in 1963 as a small operation out of Norman McCurdy's backyard, has grown to two locations and more than 100 acres of trees. The business also sells wreaths and other holiday-related items.

"In addition to providing a key element for many families' holiday season, McCurdy's employs environmentally friendly practices, such as offering free tree recycling after the holidays and planting about three trees for every one harvested," Vance said. "It was nice to see the extended family assisting with all aspects of McCurdy's."

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.
