Green County Breakfast on the Farm Set for May 29 at Green County Fairgrounds

The Green County Ag Chest announces that the 41st Annual Green County Breakfast on the Farm is scheduled for May 29, and will be held at the Green County Fairgrounds in Monroe.
The Green County Breakfast on the Farm is held annually in May and is usually hosted by a farming family from Green County. Last year, the event was canceled due to the COVID health crisis and is now scheduled to resume, but at the Green County Fairgrounds in Monroe. The change in venue made it easier for the 2021 Breakfast on the Farm Committee to plan for the event on such short notice.
