Members toured the battlefield at Gettysburg and then went to Hershey, PA, to learn about the life of Milton Hershey and his contributions to the food industry. Students learned about the process in producing all of their iconic sweet products. Members also visited Ohio State University's Waterman Research Farm to tour the commercial greenhouse facilities and learn about the AI technology used to control production in its houses. We made a stop at Young's Jersey Dairy, which has been in production since 1869. All of their products made on site and sold use milk from their own facility. After a quick stop to cheer on the Cincinnati Reds, we visited the Kentucky Horse Park to learn more about the signature industry of the Bluegrass State.
