The 2022 Franklin Fall Farm Fun Fest will be hosted by Hollow Acres Dairy Farm at 6867 Upper Strawsburg Road, Shippensburg, PA 17257. It will take place on September 24, 2022 from 10am-3pm.
Hollow Acres Farm LLC in Pleasant Hall, PA is a dairy farm owned and operated by Ron and Amy Wenger. The family is the 3rd generation to operate on the current location. In 2009, Ron and Amy formed the LLC with Ron’s parents, Carl and Susanne Wenger. In 2016, Carl and Susanne retired from the operation. In 2020, Ron and Jeff Musselman formed Dusty Hollow Farm LLC, which is a swine nursery to diversify the business. Ron and Amy run the dairy with the help of their two sons, four full-time employees, and two part-time employees.
Hollow Acres Farm LLC milks 285 cows in a double 12 parallel parlor, and also has 40 dry cows and 250 replacement heifers and calves. They milk the cows two times a day and the milk is contracted with Land O Lakes, Inc. In addition, they farm about 1,000 acres primarily to feed the cows. They raise corn, soybeans, wheat, barley, alfalfa, and grass.
The family has continued to improve the farm using technology and best management practices when working with both the animals and the farm land. Some recent enhancements for efficiency include variable rate fans, LED lighting, manure separation for bedding, and a robotic feed pusher.
We look forward to seeing you at the 2022 Franklin Fall Farm Fun Fest and welcome the opportunity to answer any questions.
