Heartland Acres Agribition Center

Hands on Ag Learning

Last spring I had the opportunity to visit the Heartland Acres Agribition Center in Independence, Iowa. Obviously, I fell for the Boy because of his charm and dashing good looks, but when I arrived in Independence to find out that his family was involved in a hand-on agriculture learning center, that helped teach people where their food comes from I was sold. Seeing the worlds largest tractor - Big Bud - was pretty cool too.

Or the story goes something like that.

The Big Bud

Currently, Heartland Acres is in the running for the Site of the Year in the Silos and Smokestacks National Heritage Area, and they could use your votes. So here's the deal, Heartland Acres has decided to provide a give-a-way gift. All you have to do it follow the link, vote, and then comment on my blog that you've voted. Sunday is when the voting ends, so I'll draw then. 

How simple is that, and wouldn't it be great if a place where people can learn about and experience agriculture won.
