The Women's Committee from Washington County wins top honors at Farm Bureau's 74th Annual Conference
Jeannie Hornsby, member of the Washington County Farm Bureau Women's Committee, accepts the Outstanding County Farm Bureau Women's Committee award from Stanley Reed, AR Farm Bureau President
Farm Bureau women help accomplish the organization's mission by working with local schools, educating children about agriculture and where they get their food, fiber and fuel. From a variety of Ag-in-the-classroom activities to informing people how safe and affordable our food is, the women of Farm Bureau enthusiastically represent the organization, telling the farming story.
At the convention held in Hot Springs on December 4, Farm Bureau also recognized other contest winners, with a total of thirty-three finalists competing.
Competition sponsors included AR Farm Bureau and the University of AR Division of Agriculture Cooperative Extension Service in cooperation with Family and Consumer Science Teachers.
