Drive Your Tractor To Work Day

So this is Drive Your Tractor to Work Day. This is our 9th year doing it. Started in 2017 with one tractor, and today I believe there's over 50 tractors. I think I heard a number of 54. I haven't confirmed that yet, but there's a lot of tractors here today.

I think it's important because I see so many young families here and even grandparents with their grandchildren, that they realize that there is something else to get and to help us with food security rather than just shelves in the grocery store. You know, here we're at 2025, over 100 years after the homesteaders got here and were farming this area, and we have issues that we're constantly hearing about with food security. And these farmers are addressing food security every single day when they go to work, and they've been doing it for a long time. And this event highlights to the public that the farmers are here. We're providing food on a daily basis for Alaskans.

We're here to feed ya, and we're doing the work.
