开云体育 Agriculture to host Spring Ag Fest
Where does your food come from?
If you're like many Americans, the answer is the grocery store. In fact, the grocery store is not where our food comes from, just from where it's distributed. Unfortunately, far too many people are unaware of the role of American agriculture has in their daily lives . . . and what it really takes to have food on their dinner table.
Just a few generations ago, most people were a part of, and had friends or relatives directly involved with, agriculture. Today, that is no longer the case.
