WHITE CO. YOUNG FARMER TAKES HOME NATIONAL OUTSTANDING AWARD

Brad and Tara Peacock of Bald Knob were recently selected for the Outstanding Farmers of America (OFA) award. The Peacocks are members of White County Farm Bureau and serve as Vice Chairs of the Arkansas Farm Bureau Young Farmers & Ranchers committee.

Each year, the OFA accepts nominations for National Outstanding Young Farmers. Ten finalists are honored at the annual NOYF Awards Congress held in a different region of the United States each year. Four national winners are selected, and all past nominees are inducted into the Outstanding Farmers of America.

The OFA is comprised of past nominees of the Outstanding Young Farmer Program. The group is designed to facilitate an exchange of ideas and friendship that encourages excellence and involvement in agriculture and the local, state, and national community.
