Ohio State Fair ExhibitGirl painting with soil at the Ohio State Fair

This year at the 2011 Ohio State Fair, NRCS will partner with the Farm Service Agency (FSA), Rural Development and the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) at our USDA Exhibit.  Information on pollinators, conservation programs for both urban and rural residents, and activities for kids will be on hand for the whole family.  As always we'll have our rain barrel for you to check out up close and in person.  They are easy to make and widely available commercially if you'd like to buy one already put together. 

The highlight of the exhibit will be the soil painting.  Paints made with soils from around Ohio and from other states will be on hand for kids to paint pictures. 

So come visit NRCS in Columbus at the Ohio State Fair July 27 – August 7.  We’re in the Ag and Horticulture Building, the one with the corn climbing wall.  Hope to see you there!
