“Franklin County tourism is like a shining light that has been covered, and I most enjoy letting people see that light shine,” she said.
The third and final program, on Tues. April 2, is “Foraging in Franklin County,” presented by Dr. David Foster, professor of biology & environmental science at Messiah University.
