๐พ๐ Happy National Farmers Day! ๐
Today, we come together to celebrate our local farmers and the incredible impact they have on Kenosha. Your hard work not only feeds our community but also drives our local economy.
As we honor our farmers, I'm reminded of my own journey into the world of agriculture. My very first experience working was as a volunteer at the Field of Dreams, a place where the community came together to grow fresh food for the less fortunate. It was here that I learned the value of hard work, thanks to the guidance of my grandmother. She believed in teaching me and my brother the skills we'd need to work for ourselves, and I'm forever grateful for her wisdom.
My journey continued at Gateway Technical College, where I immersed myself in the horticulture program, exploring sustainable agriculture and obtaining a certification as an applicator. This newfound knowledge opened doors, leading me to become a groundskeeper on campus and in the urban farm.
More recently, I had the privilege of working with Root Pike WIN on a project led by soil health expert Jamie Patton from the Wisconsin NRCS. The insights I gained about soil health and regenerative farming practices have deepened my commitment to supporting Kenosha's farmers and advancing sustainable agriculture.
But here's the exciting part: we're not just celebrating the past; we're shaping the future. Together, we can leverage these innovative farming practices and technology to create a cityscape that blends agriculture with urban living. By doing so, we can address food scarcity and enhance the sustainability of our city.
This National Farmers Day, let's work together to make Kenosha a place where dreams become a reality, where agriculture thrives, and where every community member benefits. Happy National Farmers Day! ๐ฑ๐ฝ
