Weis highlights local suppliers in video series

Local suppliers of fresh foods for Weis Markets — including some farmers supplying the company's stores for more than 50 years — are highlighted in a new series of videos the retailer produced.

The clips were made by an internal team at Weis to accompany its exhibits at the Pennsylvania Farm Show, which was held in January in Harrisburg. Weis, based in Sunbury, Pa., is a major sponsor of the Farm Show Exhibit Center.

The videos below feature Hegins, Pa.-based potato farmer John Terwilliger; apple supplier named (appropriately enough) Mark Apple of Apple Fruit Farms in Richfield, Pa.; dairy farmer Ray Wolfe of Powerline Dairy, a supplier for Weis private label milks; and cantaloupe grower Titus Hoover of Port Trevorton, Pa. A fifth video produced for the show highlights value-added manufacturing of sausages at Weis' meat processing plant in Sunbury.
