LOCAL BOOST: Grand prize in the LG Seeds Farm Progress Show drawing is $1,000 to your local FFA or 4-H group.
LG Seeds Brand Supply Manager and Illinois 4-H Foundation Board Member, Eric Yoder, is very excited that LG Seeds is giving back to the community, particularly ag-related organizations. Yoder says, "FFA and 4-H are both strong groups that provide learning and leadership opportunities to students across the country. LG Seeds feels it is very important to give back to the community and to such great organizations."
LG Seeds Marketing Specialist, Kristy Johns, is also very pleased with LG's focus to help a local area FFA or 4-H Club. Johns says, "FFA and 4-H are not your average youth organizations. It's a great fit to give back to those organizations because LG Seeds is also not your average seed company. We truly value our farming community and are thrilled to give back to an ag-related cause."
The Farm Progress Show will be taking place August 28-30 next week in Boone, IA. LG Seeds, based in Elmwood, Illinois, is a producer and marketer of seed corn, soybean and alfalfa seed, operating throughout the US Cornbelt.
