National Forage Week runs from June 21-27, 2020. It is a great opportunity to recognize the importance of forages in the daily lives of Americans and say thank you to our forage producers across the nation.
The complexity of forage management requires producers to have vast knowledge of plant and animal sciences. It is more complicated than just growing and mowing grass. To be a successful forage grower you must have knowledge about soil health, botany, nutrition, zoology, climatology, machinery, and finances too.

The USDA Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) was established to fill the gap when children lose access to meals when schools are closed. Most often this occurs during summer vacation. However, during school closures related to the pandemic, meals are also being made available. You have the opportunity to supplement the food you have at home with meals and snacks for your children from local schools and community organizations.
