The future of New Hampshire agriculture and food is in good hands! 🐄
I loved meeting the young Granite Staters of NH 4-H at the Sandwich Fair. They spend all year caring for their animals, and their pride and hard work were on full display in every barn and show ring. Every 4-H member pledges their head, heart, hands, and health to their club, community, country, and world, and I saw that pledge in action.
I also met so many of the people who make this fair so special: the local vendors, crafters, food makers, and small businesses who who put in long hours to share their work with their neighbors.
The costs of fuel, feed, equipment, and everyday living keep climbing, and it gets harder every year to keep a farm or small business in the family.
I'll keep fighting so our family farms and family-owned small businesses can thrive for generations to come. 🇺🇸
