It’s been a pretty mild winter so far with lots of rain and mud. Take a break from all the mud and meet up with old and new acquaintances for a lively discussion at a Farm Bureau Community Council meeting. For decades, these meetings have been a great way to build camaraderie and community relations while discussing farm and family topics. Your participation as a community council member helps our organization continue to focus on critical issues, create better policy and help people work together to get things done.
