The Logan County Farm Bureau Board of Directors would like to present to you this small token of our appreciation for all you do for the education of the children of Logan County.

Farm Bureau recognizes the importance of education and the part it plays in the success of our children as they grow into the future leaders of our community.  Farm Bureau strives to be the Voice of Agriculture in our local community, as well as the State Legislature and even on the Federal level.  In our modern Society, Education is very important to the success of our industry and the understanding of where our food and fiber comes from and how it is produced.

The past two years have brought us all many new and difficult challenges, especially for our school systems and their leaders.  We just want you to know that we are glad to have each of you as leaders of our schools and know that you do your best to care for the safety and educational needs of our children.  We know you have faced many new situations the past two years and have had to make difficult decisions during a stressful time.  We appreciate your leadership and are glad to know we have dedicated leaders who work hard to give the children of Russellville and Logan County the opportunity to obtain an outstanding education.  We want you to know that you are appreciated.

Making Efforts Now to Save Farmland for the Future

When farmland goes out of production, it just doesn’t come back. Or if farmland is bought by investors outside of the rural community of which it is a part, the farmers, who have lived there, are no longer around to be a vital part of that community.
