Join us in celebrating the rich legacy and profound impact of agriculture in the Columbus area! The 54th Annual Rural Recognition Banquet is just around the corner, taking place at the American Legion on Tuesday, March 21st, 2023.
Organized by the Columbus Area Chamber of Commerce Agribusiness Committee, the Rural Recognition Banquet is a community-driven event that seeks to recognize and honor the tireless efforts of our local ag producers and agribusiness professionals. Agriculture is Nebraska's number one industry, and we are proud to celebrate it and the critical role it plays in our region.
In Platte County, agriculture's influence extends beyond farming, manufacturing, and tourism. This year, we are thrilled to recognize the tremendous contributions of several award recipients, including the following:
