We will be offering Chemical Certification from 1pm-3pm that afternoon. Valerie Clingerman for the Purdue Extension Office will offer the program and act as another source of information for our attendees. A discussion of farm issues will take place from three to four. There will be health screenings and Gary Truit from Hoosier AG Today will also be at the event promoting the HAT network and TOC Farm programming. TOC will also announce the 2019 Illiana Farm Family of the Year at the event.
During the event we will come around and interview booth sponsors on radio and on video. The video will be saved for posting on the internet and there will be a page on each of TOC Websites where people can click on the videos. It will be somewhere about three or four minutes in length and consist of what the sponsors want to talk about. That video will be posted and stay up one year – they can use the one the whole time, but if they want to change it, it will cost $99 per time it’s changed.
We also need a Farm Profit Preview LUNCH Sponsor!
