Each year farmers as well as agriculture officials from across the Bay State visit their legislators on Massachusetts Agriculture Day at the State House, to discuss issues and legislation affecting their farms and communities. The event this year, taking place Thursday, April 8, includes a speaking program, “Agriculture Day” awards, informational exhibits and a reception featuring Massachusetts’ farm and specialty food products. Join The Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources in recognizing Massachusetts’ farmers, and learn more about efforts to maintain the long-term viability of Massachusetts’ agriculture. For more information, contact Lisa Damon at 617-626-1731, or email Lisa.Damon@state.ma.us.
