Guest Speakers Annual Meeting 2024

We have the great pleasure to have guest speakers, Halley & Katherine Painter, the dynamic duo behind PainterLand Sisters Organic Skyr Yogurt. As founders of this incredible organic brand, the Painter sisters have combined their deep agricultural roots with a passion for sustainable, health-focused food products. Growing up on their family’s fourth-generation dairy farm in Tioga County, Pennsylvania, they learned the values of hard work, stewardship of the land, and the importance of quality nutrition - principles that shine through in every spoonful of their yogurt.

With a commitment to providing wholesome, organic products while supporting local agriculture and practicing regenerative farming, Hayley and Katherine have built not just a brand but a mission-driven company that values community, health, and sustainability.

Come out and hear the inspiring story and women of Painterland Sisters, Hayley and Katherine Painter!
