A heartfelt THANK YOU to the Ligonier Valley Farmers Market and the Loyalhanna Watershed Association for your incredibly generous donation to us today!

What you have done for our community this summer has been nothing short of amazing. To take all of the proceeds from the market this summer and give them back to 17 local nonprofits is truly an incredible testament to your commitment to our community.

We are so grateful to have been one of the organizations blessed by your generosity. Your hard work, dedication, time, and love for our community have made a tremendous difference.

Words truly cannot express how much we appreciate you and everyone who helped make the market such a success this summer. From the organizers and vendors to the volunteers, businesses, donors, and everyone who came out to support the market, THANK YOU!

We are already looking forward to next year’s market! Until then, please know how much you are appreciated.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

We were honored to sponsor tonight’s Ligonier Valley Rams Football team meal! What a great group of young men—and we couldn’t have asked for a better meal!

A huge thank you to Tubmill Creek Provisions for preparing an incredible spread. The pulled pork was a HUGE hit and, of course, everyone had some fun with the pig head!

Wishing our Ligonier Valley Rams an amazing season filled with hard work, teamwork, memories, and plenty of wins!

Some traditions just make you smile a little brighter.

We could not be more proud to be part of this annual Ligonier Valley Rams Football tradition—the Senior Mom & Son photo. This picture is so much more than a picture: its years of hard work, memories, and a whole lot of love and pride.

To all of our Senior Rams moms—enjoy this year. Soak it all in because it goes by in a flash.

A huge THANK YOU to the Ligonier Valley Farmers Market for giving us the opportunity to be part of your absolutely amazing community market today.

When we woke up to the early morning rain, we thought it might put a damper on the day… but we couldn’t have been more wrong!

We loved seeing all the bright smiles, creativity, and excitement from the kids who stopped by to make their very own colorful petal card. Watching them create, laugh, and enjoy the morning was exactly what community is all about. We loved being a part of Bloom Fest!

Thank you again to the market for welcoming us and for creating another wonderful opportunity for our community to come together.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Ligonier Valley Farmers Market tomorrow!

We hope you will visit our amazing non-profit guest tomorrow, Brandon J. Boyd Memorial Fund at Bloom Fest!

Join them in creating something beautiful, one thwack at a time 🌸🔨
Turns out flowers have alot to say if you know how to persuade them 😁🥰

The Brandon J. Boyd Memorial Fund is dedicated to honoring Brandon’s life and enduring spirit so he may live on in the hearts of all who knew him.

A nonprofit origination with a 501c3 status whose primary goal is to provide assistance to youth and teen athletic, social and educational organizations within the Ligonier Valley School District so that no team or student is denied the ability to participate due to financial restrictions.

Due to the rising costs of post-secondary education, every spring, this fund awards a scholarship to a graduating Senior of Ligonier Valley High School. In recognition of the jersey number, he so proudly wore, this scholarship is in the amount of $2,200

In addition to the annual scholarship, every July the fund hosts a free youth football camp. This is a camp for all children within the Ligonier Valley School District in grades 1-8 interested in Football. During the camp attendees learn the basics of the game and the importance of teamwork and dedication.

The majority of money raised for this fund is through an annual themed Gala Fundraiser and donations received in return for photography services provided by Memories By Christy. There are no set prices or packages, and you are asked to donate what you feel is fair.

You can find them right next to our information tent ❤️
