AGRICULTURE MATTERS...A Photo Contest Sponsored by NHFBF
New Hampshire Farm Bureau Federation is holding an agriculture themed photo contest this summer to provide an opportunity for members to showcase agriculture and to encourage appreciation for the visual appeal of farm life. Entries will be accepted from members through August 1, 2007 and youth are encouraged to participate. The theme for this contest is “Agriculture Matters.”
Entries may be submitted in four categories: Animals, People, Landscapes and Farm Bureau in Action. Photos should capture Farm Bureau members at home, at work and participating in a variety of activities and programs.
Photographs will be displayed at the NHFBF Annual Meeting at the Woodbound Inn in Jaffrey on November 8 and many will be published in The Communicator over the next year. The winners will receive a prize from New Hampshire Farm Bureau at the Annual Meeting.
