Farmers Weekly Review

Fifty-eight students from the Lincoln Way High School Ag program and Peotone FFA teamed up to prepare nearly 14,000 meals while volunteering for two hours April 5 at the Northern Illinois Food Bank’s My Pantry Express. People fill out orders, and the volunteers pack them up for taking home. After some training, the students were separated into three groups: sorting, bagging, double-checking. The program was provided by the Will County Farm Bureau Young Farmers Committee with help from Heritage Farm Service.
