We welcomed Joshua Lyon, Banks County’s new County Extension Agent today at our weekly meeting.

Joshua shared an informative presentation on silvopasture, a land management practice that integrates trees, forage, and livestock to improve sustainability, animal well-being, and long-term land productivity. Rotarians learned how this innovative approach can benefit local agriculture and our community.

Thank you, Joshua, for sharing your knowledge and for the work you are doing to support agriculture in Banks County!
