Farm to Table Dinner- Big Country Youth Agriculture Foundation

Congratulations to Cash Goretzka for exhibiting the Reserve Grand Champion Steer at the Fort Worth Livestock Show! We are proud to see our local kids represent at this level! 🖤🤍

It has been a cold few days, but our livestock exhibitors were out daily, breaking ice, checking feed, and making sure their animals were safe and cared for.

To every stock show kid facing the cold this week: stay safe, stay warm, and know how proud we are of you. The Big Country Youth Ag Foundation is cheering you on every step of the way.

And on the 9th day, after God made a farmer, God looked down on his planned paradise and needed someone to show off is prized creations. So God made a Stock ...
