Dennis C. "Denny" Wolff (born September 9, 1951) is an American farmer, non-profit founder, and former public official who was the 2018 Democratic nominee for U.S. Congress in Pennsylvania's (new) 9th Congressional District.
Wolff is a former Secretary of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, where he served in the cabinet of Governor Edward G. Rendell.
He is a fifth-generation Pennsylvania dairy farmer and began his own farming operation in 1970.
Wolff started in a rented farm with thirty-five Holstein cows and grew into an operation which spanned several farms and included over 500 Holsteins.
From 1970 through the early 2000s, Pen-Col Farms operated a dairy store just outside of Millville that sold fresh milk and other dairy products.
The store was noted particularly for their chocolate milk.
In the 1980s, Wolff took Pen-Col Farms international and entered the world market for fresh and frozen bovine embryos.
The farm has since shipped to over 30 countries.
The Pen-Col herd has received international accolades for their impact on the global Holstein breed.
The farm has bred 456 cows rated Very Good or Excellent, 54 Gold Metal Dams, and 122 Dams of Merit.
Pen-Col emphasizes breeding for superior performance as measured by protein yield.
In 1984, Wolff's youngest son, Nicholas, was born with biliary atresia, an extremely rare liver disease.
Nicholas spent the first two years of his life in and out of hospitals until receiving a life-saving liver transplant in 1986 at the University of Minnesota.
Once Nicholas returned home after his 1986 transplant, "the Wolff family, realizing the value of having a place to share their triumps and struggles, shared a dream to found a camp for chronically ill children."
Wolff donated the initial 35 acres of land to start the camp.
Through partnerships and an outpouring of community support, Camp Victory began construction.
Wolff received a Master Farmer award in 1994 and was appointed by Governor Ed Rendell as Pennsylvania's Secretary of Agriculture in 2003.

He was confirmed by the Pennsylvania State Senate later that year.

After Wolff stepped down from his role as Secretary in 2009, Governor Tom Corbett signed state House Bill 1424 in 2011, making PA Preferred the permanent branding program of agricultural commodities produced in Pennsylvania.
Governor Corbett stated that "Buying PA Preferred products helps support farmers and local businesses that work to produce quality products, while making investments in local economies and keeping Pennsylvania growing. PA Preferred makes a difference."
