Tomato Trot 5k
About this race
Join us for the 8th Annual Tomato Trot! This community run/walk benefits local organizations making a difference in the Susquehanna Valley. We are excited to support both The Refuge and Young Life, along with other local youth ministries, as they build relationships with students, provide Christ-centered support, and help young people grow in their faith and purpose.
The race will begin and end in the parking lot of the Furmano Foods plant in Northumberland, located at 770 Cannery Road (GPS Address: please use 815 Cannery Road). The 5K will be chip-timed by Falcon Race Timing. This is a rain or shine event, so come prepared!
