Sheridan County Farmers Union and North Dakota Farmers Union teamed up to deliver appreciation baskets on August 24, to family ranchers in Sheridan County. The baskets were filled with snacks and sandwiches to show appreciation for the hard work ranchers do to feed their neighbors and rural communities. The baskets also included information about available drought resources. “This year has been incredibly challenging, especially for ranchers who have had to sell off all or part of their herd due to the drought. It’s a lot to overcome,” said Sheridan County Farmers Union President Melissa Pfennig. “It’s a small gesture, but we want ranchers to know that we appreciate and support them.”
