Nona and Stanley Brown Memorial Scholarship Fund

Stan and Nona Brown, owners of Brown’s Orchards and Farm Markets, led a life of service to the community and encouraged others to do the same through the years. Nona was involved with the local 4-H program for over 30 years, serving as a club organizational leader for many of those years. Nona was especially passionate about helping 4-H members develop public speaking skills, providing valuable tips and coaching as they planned for demonstrations and public speaking events. As a farmer, Stan was involved with Penn State Extension throughout his life. Through the Penn State Extension, he was a big supporter of the York County 4-H Center and served as the York County 4-H Endowment Board Chairman.

Their daughter, Linda Krupa, started the Nona and Stanley Brown Memorial Scholarship Fund to provide scholarships to York County 4-H members for college or accredited programs to continue Nona and Stan’s legacy of educating the next generation on agriculture.
