Back to work

After a decent weekend its time to get back to work. At least between all the meetings.
The week starts with a Putnam County Farm Bureau meeting on Monday night. Looking for a new goal or project to plan for 2010. On Tuesday we have an Ag Week committee meeting at 9 a.m. . This year's Ag Week is scheduled for March 16-18 with the Ag Breakfast kicking things off again Tuesday morning and ending with the Mini-Farm Fest on Thursday starting at 3:30 p.m.
We are planning more activities and fun for all the children. Its free and a great opportunity to make your kids the center of attention for an evening. If you know anyone who might like to have an Agriculture related booth at the event let them know and contact Ann at the Extension office. Tuesday night is the 4-H Leader Workshop being planned from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. On Friday will be a special Fairboard meeting to discuss some business that was presented at the last meeting. The next FB Legislative Update session will be Feb. 20 at 8 a.m. in the FB Boardroom. We are also planning on a trip to the statehouse after bills switch houses this week. A number of Agriculture issues are still being discussed and we will continue letting our legislators know what Putnam County Farmers are thinking. On January 23rd we were able to meet with Brad Ellsworth and discuss several National Ag Issues. Sorry no funnies lately, couldn't find anything appropriate. Will try to post some pictures of the Ellsworth meeting soon.
