The Ringgold County Farm Bureau helped sponsor the agriculture in the classroom event which brought Craig L. HAYS from Iowa State University and the equipment to the WERNER farm.

A story about the Ramsey Farm at Lesanville project was featured in the October 19 issue of Iowa Farmer Today, a state-wide agricultural publication.
