Holly Harshman Elementary would like to thank the Polk County Farm Bureau Women's Committee for their generous donation. Mrs. Parsons and Mrs. White are so appreciative of the generous gifts of planters, grow lights, and seeds that have helped our students better understand the life cycle of a plant. We look forward to using the soybeans for next year!
