Railroad Museum unveils garden project to offer a new perspective
BY ADRIAN ESCHENWALD
Railroads have shaped American history in many ways, from the swift westward expansion of the United States to the cascading impact on the formation of small towns and massive cities along railways. Although the 21st century boasts advanced technology once thought the realm of science fiction, the locomotive is anything but an antique, and it continues to play a vital role in the world of transportation. Railroads’ impact on the world as we know it may be observed in nearly every town, affecting qualities of modern life as minute as the vegetables we eat. The Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania, 300 Gap Road, Strasburg, recently completed a project to install a garden of heirloom vegetables in its front lawn.
At first glance, the garden plot has no obvious connection to the colossal train cars that litter the museum’s property, but museum educators Juliette O’Connor and Jesse Shetrom said plants and trains are intertwined in unique ways. Prior to the implementation of railroads as the primary method of transporting perishable goods, many regions grew produce that was unique to the area. After refrigerated train cars made it possible to export food to other states without it spoiling, many vegetables became standardized, which allows someone in Arkansas to enjoy the same produce as someone in Pennsylvania. One of O’Connor and Shetrom’s goals was to highlight local heirloom vegetables that fell out of favor, and the garden contains regional varieties such as blue pod peas, scarlet runner beans, black Brandywine tomatoes,

The United States contains a wealth of beautiful landscapes and striking scenery that can be found in every part of the country. Many Americans and visitors from around the globe are aware of the numerous state and national parks that contain verdant groves and diverse natural biomes that remain largely untouched by human civilization. But in most communities, including Lancaster County,
people who seek to experience the beauty of nature don’t need to travel to Yellowstone to find it; from remote trails scattered across the Southern End to nature parks nestled between the Hempfield area and the Susquehanna River, an outdoor adventure is often only a short drive from home.
On July 11, the Quarryville Library hosted Keith Greenawalt for his program “Adventures in our Natural Parks.” Greenawalt, a Lancaster County native and

As a third-generation funeral director, Chad Snyder has a unique perspective of the profession. In 1947, Chad’s grandfather, Charles F. Snyder, opened a funeral home in downtown Lancaster, and the business grew to offer locations in Millersville, Willow Street, Lititz and other parts of the county. Chad watched his father, Chip Snyder, run the business after Charles retired, and Chad became the director
in 2018. Chad was appointed to the Pennsylvania State Board of Directors earlier this year, and he said he plans to use his experience to bridge the gap between funeral directors and state legislators to benefit Lancaster and communities throughout the state.
Since joining the state board of funeral directors, Chad has taken monthly trips to the capitol to meet with other funeral directors and government officials during public sessions. The meetings incorporate discussions on
director of the Dillsburg Area Public Library, highlighted local destinations and historic sites found within a couple hours of Lancaster. “(Lancaster County) Central Park has always been a favorite of mine, and I spent a lot of time on the Conewago Trail in college,” Greenawalt said. “York has more state parks, but Lancaster has more rail trails.”
Greenawalt said he first became interested in the outdoors as a high school student after he joined the cross-country team, and he discovered several hiking trails when he would go on runs. Over the years, Greenawalt has accumulated a list of destinations throughout the area, including Muddy Run Park and the Enola Low Grade Trail in the Southern End. Outdoor attractions can be found in other parts of the county as well, including Lake Grubb Nature Park in West Hempfield Township and Blue Rock Park just north of Millersville. Lancaster Conservancy maintains several nature preserves throughout the county, such as Shiprock Woods Nature Preserve in Willow Street.
taking a bird’s-eye-view approach. “I am a bit of a Google Maps junkie; it’s a good place to start,” Greenawalt said. “If you know where you’re going, look at the big-picture view.”

Greenawalt recommends a few different methods to local residents hoping to find a little slice of quiet in the wilderness: Smartphone applications such as AllTrails allow hikers to find nearby nature paths, and most areas’ local governments have resources for tourists on their official websites. Greenawalt also advised checking local libraries for books on destinations in the community as well as national parks throughout the country. Alternatively, Greenawalt recommends

“The garden is an opportunity to revamp the museum’s outside space,” Shetrom said. “(O’Connor and I) are avid gardeners at home, and we were looking forward to doing something a bit different.” Shetrom added that he and O’Connor hope to expand the garden to more areas of the property, which will include native plants and flowers to attract pollinators.
The implementation of
the garden aligns with the restructuring of Pennsylvania’s new educational standards to place a focus on environmental literacy. The garden will allow the Railroad Museum to maximize its vacant outdoor plots by making the property more sustainable, and it plans to expand its partnerships to conservation groups, gardeners and state agencies in addition to local schools.

Funeral director
various issues that impact the funeral industry, such as the evaluation of funeral directors’ licenses and newly proposed legislation that could have cascading effects on funeral services across Pennsylvania. At 42 years old, Chad is the youngest member of the board, and he said he hopes to offer his fresh perspective of the industry to the board’s discussions.
“I’m looked at as the next generation of directors and a new set of eyes,” Chad said. “My desire is to be a spokesperson for great funeral service and to advocate for high standards, ethics and values. I’m very honored and humbled to be
from pg 1
a representative for funeral services across the state.”
In addition to being the youngest member, Chad is the only member of the state board of funeral directors to operate multiple funeral homes. Chad helped design Charles F. Snyder’s Willow Street location, and he continues to work with his father to run the business. “My dad is still very involved, which I’m very grateful and blessed for,” Chad said. “I think my perspective will be helpful when looking at different situations brought to the board.”
Chad said he hopes to advocate for funeral direc-
tors and clients in every community in Pennsylvania in addition to Lancaster County. “I’m taking on an important role not just for the community I live and work in, but to be a shoulder for other directors to lean on when they need help,” added Chad. “Across the board, we want to have the general public have a pleasant experience when the need arises.”
Charles F. Snyder’s Willow Street location will host an educational workshop this October to explore different areas of funeral services and cremation services. For more information, visit www.snyderfuneral home.com.
