Cleona rests in a gentle hollow, where the land begins its slow, deliberate climb toward the larger hills that cradle Lebanon County. It lies 3.4 miles west of Lebanon, PA (from Lebanon, PA: bearing 266°T), and is situated 9.9 miles east-north-east of Hershey. The soil here, a rich, dark loam, speaks of generations of cultivation, and the fields, when viewed from a slight elevation, unfurl like patchwork quilts stitched with the greens of summer corn and the golden hues of ripening wheat. The air, especially in the late afternoon when the sun angles low, carries the sweet, earthy scent of mown hay and the distant, faint hum of unseen machinery, a sound that has long been the pulse of this place. The houses, many with wide porches and sturdy clapboard siding, seem to lean into each other, offering a quiet companionship against the vast, indifferent sky. The history of Cleona is deeply entwined with the agricultural bounty of its surroundings and the industrious spirit of its early settlers, many of whom were drawn from German lands seeking fertile ground and a new beginning. For decades, the local economy thrived on the produce of these very fields, with farmers bringing their harvests to market and supporting a network of small businesses that once lined the main thoroughfares. While the landscape still echoes with the echoes of its agrarian past, the modern Cleona also acknowledges the steady, dependable work found in nearby manufacturing and service industries, a testament to the adaptability of its people. A distinctive feature of Cleona, often overlooked by the casual observer, is the quiet resilience etched into the faces of its long-time residents, a reflection of a life lived in concert with the seasons and the enduring strength of community.
