GroundedGreenGrowing


Horn Farm Center Main HouseThe Horn Farm Center for Agricultural Education is a non-profit organization dedicated to showcasing and interpreting the rich heritage, viable present, and exciting future of York County agriculture.

Located in beautiful Hellam Township, Pennsylvania, we are fulfilling our mission to bring people together to directly experience sustainable agriculture, promote the rich heritage of our lands, and to make known the fundamental importance of local agriculture to the health and well-being of our community, our economy, and our environment.

Horn Farm Center offers many opportunities to participate in and experience hands-on multiple aspects of our educational operations, including gardening projects, agricultural-related events, and guided tours of our historical farms.

Grounded, Green, GrowingWe offer thanks to
Chuck SifordChuck Siford!
Our new tag line design was the creation of Chuck Siford. Chuck’s parents, Charlie and Verna Siford have been long time friends and volunteers of the Horn Farm Center. Charlie was our newsletter creator and editor until he passed away last year. Chuck lives in Westlake, Ohio, with his wife Ann and their two children. Chuck’s parents introduced him to the farm but he continues to volunteer (long distance) because of his fond memories of growing up on a farm in East York.

After graduating from Red Lion High School and York Academy of Arts (now Pennsylvania School of Art & Design), he pursued his dream of being a commercial-artist.  When we told him about our new tag line, he went right to work trying to design something that would capture his memories. READ MORE
