  Youth Heifer Program

 

During the Spring Membership meeting, the youth committee made a proposal for the adoption of a Youth Heifer Program.  The membership approved the proposal and three MDBA members have already generously donated the first three heifers.  A big “Thank You” to:

 

Steve and Mary Jane Cushing– Cushings Lil Dexter Farm

Tony & Marnita Wood– Woodland Dexter’s
and

Jim Bennett– Diamond B Farm
