19. Ep. 19 - Supporting Rural Communities

The Block Party

Thanks for joining us at The BLOCK Party!

On this episode we talk with Leona Daniels, District 10 Director on the Michigan Farm Bureau board or directors to introduce September’s discussion topic and get to know. This will preview the four-corner post as determined by Michigan Farm Bureau’s Rural Communities Task force. You will hear more regarding the great work happening across Michigan and how you can get involved. In case you want to learn more about the resources Leona mentioned, check out the Rural Communities update, Feeding MI Families report and the Agent Charitable Fund.
