Congratulations to Shannon Tatman, for being awarded Monsanto’s Farmers Grow Community Award. Shannon is the parent of 4-H member Laura Tatman. They received a check for $2500  for the club.

According to the program overview, ” To further support counties that have been declared disaster areas by the USDA due to drought, winning farmers in these counties can choose where to direct an additional $2,500 donation based on community needs that surfaced because of the drought. The Monsanto Fund will invest over $5 million to local nonprofit organizations across the country through Grow Communities this year.”  The Bridgeville Mustangs 4-H Club was selected as this organization.
