Ben, I can not think of a more deserving employee. The enthusiasm and professionalism that you put forth in representing and assisting the ag community is greatly appreciated.
Ben is exactly that!! He is sincere when you contact him and wants to work with all the ag entities in the county. He helps not only at the farm fair, the farmers markets, and the farm visitation , but tries to help the farmers to sell local products to the local businessman. He goes beyond the call of duty and deserves a huge pat on the back. We in the ag community think very highly of BEN!!
