The generosity, purity, and kindness of the agriculture community was celebrated during the 2022 Trigg County Appreciation Dinner.
A large crowd gathered for the annual event on March 17 at Seven Springs Farms to honor two Outstanding Youth in Agriculture, the Agribusiness of the Year, and the Friend of Agriculture. The evening culminated with a presentation by photojournalist Paul Mobley.
Mobley said the making of his American Farmer book took him on a journey through agriculture across the country.
