The Newton County Farm Bureau is set to observe National Farm-City Week from Nov. 19 through Nov. 25 with an agricultural art contest for fifth graders. The 55th annual event celebrates the cooperative relationship between farmers and the people who help process, market and retail the food farmers grow.
