President's Column | Ham, Heart, and Heritage, a Good Way to Describe KFB this Time of Year
September 5, 2025: I’m a firm believer in the good our organization does for this state and our agriculture industry every day of the year. I say it because I believe in it, I have lived it, and I see the fruits of our labor from the front porches of our farmhouses to the Capitol steps in Washington, D.C.
