Not everyone has switched on their heat yet, but it’s not too early to think about ways to afford those high utility bills that arrive in the colder months. Applications are now being accepted for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, better known as LIHEAP. Qualifying homeowners and renters can receive grants of between $200 and $1,000 to cover heating costs. The money is sent directly to the recipient’s utility company and does not need to be repaid.

Jersey Shore farm family brings local beef to school lunch trays

Jersey Shore, Pa. — Bridge View Farm, owned by Todd and Casey Bowes, has joined the Pennsylvania Beef Council’s PA Beef to PA Schools (PBPS) program to supply locally raised beef to Jersey Shore Area School District lunch trays. The farm made its first delivery to the district in October. Deliveries will resume in January, providing about 50 pounds of ground beef each month through the rest of the school year. Todd Bowes, a Jersey Shore Area School District graduate, is a third-generation farmer. The family began offering freezer beef directly to customers in November 2025 and now raises about 150 head of cattle, buying feeder cattle and raising them to market weight. The farm takes its name from the one-way Tiadaghton bridge near the family’s home. “People want to know where their food comes from, and we love having the opportunity to share what we do and how our beef is raised,” said Casey Bowes. “So many of our customers are families right here in our community. Knowing that the same beef they trust to feed their families at home can now be served to their children at school makes this partnership especially meaningful.” Casey Bowes, a full-time nurse
