LOUDOUN COUNTY’S AWARD-WINNING FARMER
TRADING CARDS ARE BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND.The cards feature Loudoun County
farmers, many of whom made
special appearances at Loudoun
elementary schools to autograph
cards.
“It’s great to have children look up
to these successful business
owners, who not only contribute to
Loudoun’s economy, but also help
feed the community,” said Loudoun
Economic Development’s Executive
Director Buddy Rizer.

“Last year’s farmers were treated
like all-stars when they visited the
schools,” said Loudoun’s
Agricultural Development Officer
Kellie Hinkle. “The cards
generated so much excitement
that local, regional and national
media ran stories about them.
School systems in other states
contacted us to talk about
producing trading cards of their
own.”

“Our goal is to promote healthy
eating, as well as to educate
children about the importance of
farming and where their food
comes from,” said Dr. Becky
Domokos-Bays, director of School
Nutrition.
