HARRISBURG - Rep. Jamie Barton (R-Berks/Schuylkill) is hosting a breakfast for the 124th Legislative District’s farmers to show Berks and Schuylkill counties’ appreciation for their hard work to help put food on our tables. Immediately preceding the breakfast, Barton is organizing a Blessing of the Balers to pray for a safe, productive and prosperous planting season.

The Blessing of the Balers will take place Wednesday, March 6, at 8:30 a.m. at C.J. Hummels Restaurant in Lenhartsville. Breakfast will be served afterward.

“The event may be called Blessing of the Balers, but we’re praying for much more than just the balers,” Barton said. “Our farmers work from sunup to sundown to make sure the rest of us have fruits, vegetables, grains and livestock to feed our families. But no matter how hard they work, they need a little help from Mother Nature to make sure their fields get the proper amount of rain. I’m inviting all of our agriculture workers to join me as we pray for a safe and successful growing season! Afterwards, I’d like the chance to return the favor to give our farmers a warm meal to thank them for all they do for us.”

Please RSVP for this event by calling Barton’s district office at 484-660-3721 or visiting RepBarton.com/Events.
