Committees:
Committee meetings are occasionally held throughout the year. Our standing committees carry on from year to year, while time-and-need committees are formed on an as needed basis. The chairman and committee members are appointed by the Lee County Farm Bureau President and approved by the Board. All actions of all committees are subject to approval by the Lee County Farm Bureau Board.
