Virginia Farm Bureau’s been packaging up some delightful December looks at Virginia agriculture for its weekly television program, Real Virginia. Broadcasts this month focus on the state’s stock of fresh Christmas trees, the bustle of cotton harvest season and the annual state auctioneer championship. There’s also a visit to the farms of Carroll County.

Real Virginia can be viewed online and airs nationwide at 3:30 p.m. on the first Saturday of each month on RFD-TV on Dish Network and DirecTV, and on selected cable outlets around the state. It airs weekly on WVPT Harrisonburg, WCVE Richmond, WHRO Norfolk, WVVA Bluefield and WTKR Norfolk.

If you’re a Farm Bureau producer member, watch your mailbox after the first of the year for your January issue of Virginia Farm Bureau News magazine. In it, you’ll find coverage of the 2017 Virginia Farm Bureau Federation Annual Convention, along with information on upcoming conferences. There’s also a feature article on how Farm Bureau is celebrating and preserving history at The Meadow Event Park in Caroline County.

Associate members, your next issue of Cultivate magazine will arrive in February.

Current and back issues of both magazines can be viewed online.
