Many Mardi Gras

Young farmers from across Louisiana gathered at Cypress Bend in Many for the annual LFBF YF&R Leadership Conference in January.  The purpose of the conference is to give young farmers from across the state the chance to meet and to discuss the issues they face.  The weekend started Friday night with a banquet, followed by a dance and costume contest.  The meeting on Saturday included speakers covering topics including stress and the Louisiana Ag Literacy Day.  Attendees also got a chance to discuss issues that will be coming up in the next Louisiana Legislative Session.
