Northern farmers will once again have the option to sit back, relax and enjoy the bus ride to MN Ag EXPO in Mankato next month. Farmers are encouraged to take advantage of the stress-free ride by hopping on the bus at one of four stops across northern Minnesota.

The bus will be picking up farmers in Red Lake Falls, Fertile Ada, Barnesville and Fergus Falls the morning of Jan. 23, which is the day before EXPO begins.

If you are interested in reserving a spot on the bus, do so sooner than later by contacting Lorri Ann Hartel at lhartel@prairieagcomm.com or call 218-686-6144. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to leave the car at home and attend EXPO!
