Six leaders in farming, forestry and public service were inducted into the Arkansas Agriculture Hall of Fame on March 27 at the Statehouse Convention Center in Little Rock.
This year’s honorees were: Jim Carroll III of Moro; Joe Fox of Fayetteville; Allen B. Helms Jr. of Clarkedale; former U.S. Sen. Blanche Lincoln of Washington, D.C.; John Paul Pendergrass of Charleston; and the late Benny Petrus of Stuttgart.
The Electric Cooperatives of Arkansas are proud to sponsor this program — which seeks to build public awareness of agriculture and to recognize past and current leaders — with Arkansas Farm Bureau and Farm Credit Associations of Arkansas.
