Help us celebrate our local farmers and ranchers on Tuesday, March 19th – National Agriculture Day – at our Douglas branch!
Did you know more than 11,000 farms produce commodities across the Cowboy State, which has over 30 million acres of farmland? Because of Wyoming’s vegetation in the grasslands and mountains, our land is favorable for livestock.
The production of beef cattle is the biggest part of Wyoming’s agriculture industry. In 2008, cattle producers brought in over $500 million in production value for the commodity. Other important commodities include hay, barley, wheat, corn and sheep. Farmers also grow sugar beets, and raise hogs, horses and honeybees.
Points West is proud to celebrate our agricultural communities every day, but want to take advantage of National Agriculture Day to honor the hardworking crew.
Join us in Douglas for a delicious lunch, games and giveaways from 11:00am-2:00pm on March 19th!
