Cameron County Chamber Promotes Preferred in PA


 
This week the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce received approval from the PA Department of Agriculture to use the PA Preferred Logo at the Artisan Center.  “Many of our items are made by Pennsylvania artists that grow or only use materials found in the state,” explained Executive Director, Tina Johns Solak. 
 
The program is used as a marketing tool to solicit orders from those looking to only feature items made in the United States.  Artists at the center are being asked to apply for the status.  Johns Solak hopes to see Karen Vasko, who makes butters using fruit grown in Cameron County, Nelson Haas and Marilyn Erickson who make walking sticks from those gathered in the county and Teresa Genaux who spins alpaca fleece into yarn and knits items to all be PA Preferred in the next few months. 
Anyone wanting more information on the program can find it on the internet:  www.papreferred.com.
