AgConnect is pleased to announce the release of the 2025 Chester County Farm Guide, a publication that features the people, places, and products of Chester County’s amazing agriculture industry. The Guide offers residents and visitors alike the opportunity to explore and support the region’s rich farming heritage.
“Whether you’re on the hunt for locally-grown produce, a fun weekend activity, or you want to learn a little more about Chester County’s agricultural products and heritage, this annual Farm Guide has it all,” said Jordan Peek, project manager for AgConnect.
The Farm Guide highlights more than125 family-owned farms and markets throughout Chester County, spotlights the County’s Agriculture Award recipients, and includes a Farm Product Calendar showcasing what’s in season, and various tips and resources.
This year’s edition features the Rohrer family of Rob Roy Farm in Nottingham, the 2024 Chester County Farmers of the Year, recognized for their ongoing contributions to the agricultural community. Also featured is Lisa McNamara, recipient of the Duncan Allison Distinguished Service to Agriculture Award, whose tireless work continues to impact the future of farming in the county.
Inside the Guide, readers will find seasonal recipes featuring ingredients grown and raised in Chester County. The Guide also highlights Good Food Fest, an annual family-friendly event that brings together local food vendors, educational activities, and wellness resources—all in one vibrant location.
As always, the Guide showcases Chester County farms, producers, farm stores, and farmers markets where fresh produce, meats, eggs, flowers, fiber products, trees, and more can be purchased. The Farm Guide can also be found online at www.go-agconnect.org, with an interactive feature to source farm products close to home.
“By choosing to buy local, you’re investing in the future of Chester County agriculture,” added Jordan Peek. “We are thrilled to share this year’s stories, resources, and events with the community.”
