Let the countdown begin! The #KYStateFair is only one month away. 🎡

Thanks to all of our 4-H/Youth Rabbit and Poultry exhibitors who have contacted us. After listening to your concerns and talking to our judges, we’ve created a new plan that allows for these competitions to be part of the Fair. More information will be released early next week.

We must engage young people in conversations around #sustainability. Thank you, @ocpgroup, for inviting me to share how @4H is empowering the next generation of leaders to use their knowledge and passion to positively impact the future of #ag.
