From March 11, 2023 post.
Yesterday was Montgomery County Ag Day! Both adult & youth leadership toured farms and the agriculture industry in Montgomery County.
Stops included The Sandhills Research Station, Perdue Feed Mill, Parson’s Produce, Montgomery Sheep Farm, Round Mountain Farm, Mercantile Country Store and Haywood Farms Meat, and MCC Forestry, Apiary, & Sustainable Ag Programs.
Participants learned the scale of agriculture in Montgomery ranges from large scale commercial to small and local and there is a need and market for all. They also saw first hand the hard work and time that farmers put in. It truly is a labor of love and we appreciate all of our farms and industry workers sharing their passion with us yesterday.
