Happy Friday! We are Farmer Strong and America Proud. As we celebrate 250 years of America, come back each week to learn about a dairy farm that has history and roots running deep with our country. Meet the Hoover Family of Thousand Hill Dairy in Cambria County, PA.

🔴 Their history: "Our farm was started in the late 1850s by the first generation of Hoovers from Germany. It started out with a small dairy herd, orchard and crops. By the early to mid 1900s, we were bottling our own milk, grew acres of potatoes, still had a big orchard and milked 50-60 cows. We are currently in the 7th generation on the farm."

🔵 Their passion: "We are involved in the community and the dairy industry. My great grandfather was involved in the local community helping the bank during the Depression and also on the local township board. My grandfather was a founding member of PA Farmers in our county and was involved in the PA Potato Growers and local Rural Electric Cooperative. My dad and uncle were involved in FSA board and county Farm Bureau boards. My wife and I are involved in Lancaster DHIA and PA Holstein Association. My dad also has a corn maze and sells pumpkins to the local community.'
