Senator Baker

As one of Pennsylvania’s top industries, agriculture directly impacts our health, economy, and communities. I was delighted to spend some time today at Susquehanna Ag Day shining a spotlight on those working tirelessly to provide us with fresh produce, meat, and dairy products. #nationalagricultureweek

The weather didn’t dampen our Irish spirit at the 2nd Annual Milford St. Patrick’s Day Parade! ☘️ #stpatricksdayparade #stpaddysday #milford

PA has lost a leader of surpassing capability & commitment. Her command of facts & ability to ask probing questions had few parallels. Those who served with her recall foremost her deep sense of integrity & ethics. She was a friend, mentor & trusted confidant.

Penn State Extension and Honesdale High School held the 2025 Wayne County Ag Day during National FFA Week to highlight the diversity of agricultural education and showcase cutting-edge technologies. Attendees were also able to sample local dairy products, meats, and ice cream produced by area agribusinesses. #pennstateextension #agriculture #agribusiness #nationalffaweek

Joining @senatorargall & @reprosemarybrown to provide a state budget update and discuss mental health services, fire & EMS, housing, and other issues facing our counties at the County Commissioners Association of PA District 7 meeting. #pasenate #pabudget #countycommissioners

I recently joined @senatorpittman and @reprosemarybrown for a tour of @poconoorganics a USDA Certified Organic Farm and regenerative organic certified hemp grower that partners with @rodaleinstitute

Sprawling more the 380 acres, the site houses over 38,000 square feet of greenhouse growing space standing 35 feet tall. Guests can also enjoy and purchase produce year-round in the Organic Farm Market and Cafè.

Pocono Organics focuses on the gold standards of regenerative, sustainable, and organic requirements. Their “loyal to the soil” mission means they are driven to continue organic agriculture practices promoting healthy soil that creates healthy food. #organicfarming #organicfood #organicproducts

Enjoyed spending some time with the Back Mountain Small Business Network to discuss the new legislative session and the services my office provides. Not only do these entrepreneurs support one another, but they are also very active in our community supporting those in need. #smallbusiness #entrepreneurs #communityminded

Girl Scouts Evoni Krasulski and Olivia Wulff were in Harrisburg as part of Troop PA ceremonies celebrating the achievements of women in government leadership roles. They also joined me for a #PASenate Judiciary Committee meeting and got to speak with Brig. Gen. John R. Pippy, whose nomination to serve as the adjutant general of the @pa.dmva unanimously advanced from the Veterans Affairs and Emergency Committee.

Happy 85th to my dear friend Roberta Roberts-Hughes - so glad to celebrate another BERTDAY with you!

@repbresnahan invited the community to join him as he took his oath of office at the Luzerne County Courthouse today. Rob will stand up for families and advance policies to improve the quality of life in northeastern Pennsylvania. I look forward to working with him and @repmeuser to fix problems and create opportunity.

I was proud to offer the opening prayer and participate in marking the start of the 2025-26 legislative session with the swearing-in of newly and reelected members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly. #swearingin #pasenate #publicservice

I had the pleasure of joining Brigadier General John Pippy, Pennsylvania’s Acting Adjutant General and head of the PA Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, to spread some holiday cheer at the Gino J. Merli Veterans’ Center. We visited with residents, delivered some special gifts and thanked them for their service and sacrifice. Happy Holidays to all!

This year’s Capitol Christmas tree is a stunning 24-foot Douglas fir from Crystal Springs Tree Farm in Carbon County, is the largest in more than a decade. It was decorated by our dedicated Department of General Services team with 1,250 lights and more than 700 ornaments crafted by pre-kindergarten students and senior citizens throughout Pennsylvania. #christmastrees #christmastreedecorating #christmastraditions
