Garrard County Farm Bureau Celebrates Food Check-out Day
In celebration of Food Check-out Day, the Garrard County Women’s Committee put together a basket of Kentucky foods to be given away. During the month of February, any member that came into the office could enter for a chance to win. Kathy Gaffney of Crab Orchard was the lucky winner of the goodie basket, drawn on February 28th.
Also, as part of Food Check-out Day, the women’s committee donated $100 in food supplies to the local food pantry.
