Christian County Farm Bureau Aims To Spread Information About Agriculture

It’s National Ag Week and it’s a time to celebrate all of the things the agriculture industry does for everyday life. Mellisa McMillan, Manager of the Christian County Farm Bureau, says they don’t have to do anything special during this week. Every day is a celebration of agriculture for them.

 

 

Getting information out there about agriculture is very important. McMillan explains they do something called Field Fridays, which includes a Facebook Live post every Friday to help disseminate good information.

 

 

Field Fridays can be found of the Christian County Farm Bureau Facebook page. They offer scholarships for students studying agriculture and there are no rules on where some one attends college, which means students going out of state are eligible. They can also apply all four years.

 

 

McMillan says they don’t want to forget about students studying in the agriculture field just because they are continuing students.

 

 

McMillan appeared as a guest on the NewsTalk WTIM Morning Show during National Ag Week.
