Katie Laleman joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about awards from the Annual Illinois Farm Bureau Meeting, upcoming events, membership options, the Ireland trip, and Bushels for Hunger. The Henry County Farm Bureau is celebrating recent achievements and gearing up for busy months ahead. Fresh off a successful women’s holiday wreath workshop, the Bureau announced state-level recognition for its young leaders, including third place in the “Harvest for All” campaign supporting local food pantries. Kate Huffman, honored with the state Ag Excellence Award, will soon compete nationally. The Bureau also earned the Liberty Bell Award for legislative advocacy. Upcoming events include a women’s mental health program, “Strong Enough to Bend,” on January 29th, and a day-long farm succession planning seminar on February 20th. Membership benefits and a July group trip to Ireland are available.
