The family farm-losing a way of life?

Length: 6 minutes

The Wright family farm is one of the last surviving open spaces in a rapidly growing area. But farmland here is hard to keep. New housing developments in the area result in both increased traffic and taxes. A proposed extension to the Interstate would wipe out the family's farm completely.

Produced by the Environmental Fund for Pennsylvania for the GreenWorks for Pennsylvania television episode entitled, "Faces of the Farm."
