Trucksville, Pennsylvania
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Trucksville is an unincorporated village located in Kingston Township, Pennsylvania, a township of Luzerne County, Pennsylvania. It is the "neighbor town" of Shavertown, located literally adjacent to Trucksville. The village is the site of the Lands at Hillside Farms, a popular small dairy store planned to expand into a major U.S. attraction the likes of Williamsburg, Virginia. The town has a volunteer fire department, pizza place, Methodist church, and less than 1,000 residents. Mostly working class people live here. The dairy, Hillside Farms, serves ice cream, its own milk, and many other condiments. Now under new management, it is expected to grow into a larger facility. Trucksville is named for the town's founder, William Trucks who operated a sawmill in the 19th century.
