ag-in-the-city-6

Agriculture is taking over downtown Pella this evening with the annual Ag in the City. Mary Van Zante with Marion County Farm Bureau says the summertime favorite is an opportunity for the area community to enjoy several activities related to agriculture and to learn more about the industry. Ag in the City will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. with numerous displays and food booths related to the industry lining the downtown streets and Central Park in Pella. Additionally, two contests are being held — Wheels in Bloom entries are from 4:30 to 6 and the tall corn contest is from 5 to 7 p.m. with all entries at the Farm Bureau Tent next to the KNIA/KRLS Lil’ Big Red Radio, which is broadcasting from every Thursdays in Pella this summer.
