Selling Real Estate in Union County, PA
Union County lies along the West Branch Susquehanna River in central Pennsylvania, with Lewisburg, home of Bucknell University, as its county seat. Formed from Northumberland County in 1813, it is one of the smallest counties in the state by area, yet it holds fertile valley farmland, forested ridges and state parks like R.B. Winter and Sand Bridge. US 15 runs through Lewisburg, Interstate 80 crosses the county, and Route 45 links Lewisburg with Mifflinburg to the west.
Buffalo Valley Farms & Buggy Town
West of Lewisburg, the Buffalo Valley spreads out in farmland that the Buffalo Valley Rail Trail follows for more than nine miles to Mifflinburg. Once known as “Buggy Town, USA” for its dozens of carriage factories, Mifflinburg still celebrates that heritage with Buggy Day in June and a Christkindl Market each December. About 480 farms work roughly 62,000 acres, and the county’s agriculture leans heavily on poultry, eggs, hogs and cattle, with soybeans, corn and hay in the fields.
