The Southwind Extension District is proud to recognize PrairieLand Partners in Iola for their outstanding support of the mission of K-State Research & Extension.

Prairieland Partners has been a large supporter of the 4-H program for many years.

Most recently, they graciously sponsored a multi-specie 4-H livestock “Barn to Ring” series that provided the opportunity for participants to learn livestock management and showmanship tips from top industry leaders.

PrairieLand Partners has also made purchases at the Allen, Woodson, Neosho and Bourbon county 4-H Livestock Premium Auctions.

The K-State Research and Extension Appreciation Award was authorized by Extension administrative staff in 1977. Its purpose is to honor a person, business or organization who has made outstanding contributions to extension programs in a county or district. The Southwind District Extension board and agents want to express their sincere gratitude to PrairieLand Partners for their support and look forward to partnerships yet to come.
