Stevens, Pennsylvania is a named place, in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The Stevens post office is zip code 17578.
Stevens is the home of Golden Witch Technologies,[1] a mom-and-pop business started by Russ Gooding, a college philosophy major who became one of the few professional rod makers in the world for fly fishermen.[2]
Eberly Poultry[3] employs about 70 workers at their processing plant in the Stevens area. They not only deal in chickens, duck, geese and gamebirds, but rabbits as well. The company started offering organic poultry about 1970, and since 1984, has been all-organic. They ship their specialty poultry products throughout the US and exports to Bermuda and the Caribbean.[4]
The Schoeneck and Reamstown Elementary Schools, in the Cocalico School District, have Stevens addresses, as do several churches and the Mount Airy Kennels.
