Senator Westrom: Congratulations to local 2024 Farm Families of the Year!

Friends and neighbors,

Since 1979, the University of Minnesota Farm Family Recognition Program has honored farm families from each county for their meaningful contributions to the agriculture industry and their local communities. Recently, the University of Minnesota announced the 2024 Farm Families of the Year.

In our community, the following family farms are recipients of the Farm Families of the Year award:

Congratulations to the local families who have received this prestigious award! Our family farms are the bedrock of Minnesota’s flourishing agricultural economy, embodying hard work, dedication and community spirit. Thank you for your dedication to nurturing our state’s heritage.

Families will be recognized at Farmfest in Redwood County this year, and the Farm Family of the Year Recognition Ceremony will take place on Thursday, Aug. 8. If you plan on attending Farmfest, I invite you to stop by and congratulate them!
