The Council always enjoys time at Kansas State Fair but especially when we can see friends from across the state at the Kansas Agriculture Appreciation Lunch hosted by Governor Laura Kelly, Kansas Dept of Ag and the State Board of Agriculture.

Brandi is visiting #unionstationkc and #sciencecitykc for Leadership Kansas this week. Her team did a scavenger hunt and learned some great information at the same time!

Thanks to the Gardiner Family and Kansas State University for providing such a great speaker for the Henry C. Gardiner Lecture series. @BethFordLOL was wonderful! She said it best “Farmers are incredible, less than 1% feed us all.” #kscoops #foodsecurity #coopmonth
