The Christian County Farm Bureau will be hosting Illinois House Representative Sonya Harper of Chicago as a part of the Adopt a Legislator program. Melissa McMillan with the Christian County Farm Bureau said the program is intended to give urban legislators a better idea of the importance of the Ag industry in the state.
McMillan gave a preview of the agenda for Representative Harper’s day with the Farm Bureau.
The day will wrap up with a tour of Big M Farms, a family farm that opened in 1985, and grows many fruits and vegetables.
