Waupaca County Suicide Prevention Coalition hosted the Grateful For Our Growers event at the Rustic Grill within the Glacier Wood Golf Course. "It was a truly inspirational day, set in motion with an opening of Paul Harvey's 'God Made a Farmer,' a special nod to all the hardworking farmers and agriculture people who graced us with their presence."
The event included keynote speaker, Jeff Ditzenberger, and a panel discussion with farmers including FAN board members Brenda Statz and Lynae Schott. Panelists discussed farmers' issues and how to seek assistance or help loved ones. Hailey Prosek led the panel discussion with insightful questions.
As participants left, they "toasted" their hard work and dedication with a personalized bottle of Point Root Beer and 988 bottle openers.
Thank you to Waupaca County for raising awareness to the challenges faced in our agricultural communities. #noonefarmsalone
