March 19th is also the first day of spring this year so all can celebrate both events. Th theme of this years National Ag day is "Agriculture: growing a climate for tomorrow". The purpose of National #Ag day is basically so school children don't think their milk and lunch comes from the grocery store in bags and bottles and boxes, but is produced by a human most likely somewhere. Farms of course come in various sizes and many are family farms gojng back generations.
I encourage all to visit a working farm if you were not raised on a farm and ask your questions. Farmers are the salt of the earth and most are friendly and helpful to others. My daddy was a farmer and he died in 2004 and I miss him still. He was the rock of Gibraltar in my life, unwavering in his beliefs and a good disciplinarian who taught me among other things to always be law abiding.
For details of your local Ag Day visit website agday.org. This info is from the Missouri Farmers Association magazine March 2024 issue which I might add is very helpful and includes recipes for locally grown foods.
Also, I am doing my part to grow the message of safety by including these reminders that will help all people:
Look up to see if wires dangling or equipment is entangled in wires.
Keep ten feet of clearnce around live electrical wires remembering that even if you do not touch them, electricity can arc or jump.
Stay away from sagging or downed lnes and call 9-1-1 to ask dispatcher to send power company repair.
Use a spotter with a wide, broad vantage point when you are operating equipment in close proximity to power lines. ,
Teach the 10foot rule to anyone working with you and review with them where the power lines are located on your farm or land.

Here are some of the #personhood news items of interest to me:<> Sen John Kennedy of La speaking up for preborn humans in U S Senate:
Quote: " Kennedy said that an aborted fetus would not receive any sort of justice, and would instead be put in a significant amount of pain. He pointed to an illustration of a 21-week-old fetus and described in detail a dilation and evacuation procedure."

You may email me at gloriapoole at gmail but keep in mind I login in sporadically and that I do NOT do business by email or text message. This is NOT a business. This is simply my way of communicating with the world.
