The Lease Program started in 2019 to help increase dairy numbers at our local county fair, LaGrange County. It is now offered at Steuben and LaGrange Co.

“I love getting to provide an opportunity for these kiddos that they wouldn’t be able to have without it. I love seeing the kids grow and develop through each year with their knowledge, love and expertise. It’s so fun to be a part of their lives and become a role model for some of the young kids. Getting to see them and create relationships is so fun!” ~ Abby Lewis<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>
