Jones Dairy Farm Establishes Scholarship for Culinary Students

Jones Dairy Farm, a 126-year-old family-owned-and-operated business and leader in all-natural breakfast sausage for the food service and retail industries, has extended its support for culinary arts education around the country by establishing an annual scholarship for Pennsylvania College of Technology students.

The Jones Dairy Farm Culinary Scholarship will benefit two students each year who are enrolled in the college’s culinary arts and systems bachelor-degree major or the culinary arts technology associate-degree major, have successfully completed two semesters, and have achieved a GPA of 2.75 or higher.

Based in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, Jones Dairy Farm produces high quality, all-natural sausage, naturally smoked ham and Canadian bacon, and dry-aged bacon for consumers around the world. More than 200 of the company’s products are certified gluten-free.

“Jones Dairy Farm has a long history of supporting the education of future leaders in the culinary industry,” said Robb Dietrich, executive director of the Penn College Foundation. “We’re excited for the students that they have decided to partner with Penn College by establishing this scholarship, and we look forward to expanding the relationship in the future.”

Representatives of Jones Dairy Farm recently visited the college to present an educational session and tasting of its products – working in the kitchen with culinary arts students to prepare the tasting items – and to present the scholarship to its first recipient, culinary arts and systems student Sarah B. Fiedler, of Lock Haven.
