One staff member said this event is a great way to continue to spread the need for agriculture in Iowa.
'Siouxland is really founded in agriculture,' said Dee McKenna, Experiential Learning Coordinator at Morningside University. 'You look around and it's cattle and corn, and we're very proud of the history that we have. We want Siouxland agriculture to continue to grow and thrive, so it's really important for us to invest in inspiring and sharing knowledge with each other.'
Morningside University plans to make this an annual event.

The shelter has more questions than answers. 'We're actively looking for the community's help to try and find out who the person is that abandoned this dog along the roadway. It's very, very hot today, and it wouldn't have taken long, would have succumbed to this heat,' said Rarrat. Center officials say if anyone has information about this, please call them.
