Snow may slow things down, but the work doesn’t stop. Grateful for farmers who keep showing up, even when winter weather brings everything else to a pause. A big thank you to our Operations and Farm teams for working hard this week to clear our campus roads this week!

We encourage everyone to follow guidance from TDOT, the National Weather Service, and local officials as conditions improve. Stay safe and warm, Memphis!
