Fluvanna County Young Farmers are preparing for Old Farm Day! This is a day full of exhibits, booths, and activities from Fluvanna's own. The theme of the fair this year is springtime and gardening. Our booth will primarily focus on the layers of soil and Fluvanna's crops. There will be a corn pool for kids to play in, cutouts for the perfect photo opportunity, and a special Fluvanna's products game for the adults! We hope to see you there! On another note, Fluvanna Young Farmers and Farm Bureau now has their own shirts! They are on sale online and will be available for order at Old Farm Day.
Mark Campbell, Farm Bureau rep., was available to speak with potential Young Farmers members at Fluvanna County High School on Tuesday morning. This went successfully, perking many students interest to be involved with the organization. A big thank you is due to agriculture teacher, Russell Jennings, for having Campbell come and speak with students.
As school is winding down for me, I have been busy preparing for Virginia Tech's Little International Livestock Show. Block and Bridle hosted the annual event. As my first cattle show, it was a successful learning experience showing my girl, Gloria.
Win: A win this week was ordering T-Shirts! I am excited to get our name out there through shirt sales.
Pinch: As of now, only two of us are able to work the Young Farmers booth at Old Farm Day. Hopefully we will be able to find another member to assist.
