The luncheon will be held on Wednesday, March 14, 2018 from 11:30 am - 1:30 pm at the Heritage Hall at the Santa Cruz County Fairgrounds. One of the highlights of the National Agriculture Day Luncheon will be the presentation of the Al Smith Friend of Agriculture Award. Al Smith was the founder of Orchard Supply Hardware and donated 3,000 acres (Swanton Pacific Ranch) in the north coast to Cal Poly. The ranch has row crops, timber and even a one-third-scale railroad, which was Al's hobby. The award is presented annually to an individual, business or organization not involved in production agriculture but one who has done much for the industry. This year's award will be presented by last year's honoree, Ted Burke, Owner, Shadowbrook Restaurant in Capitola. Farm Bureau and Agri-Cul- ture co-sponsor a poster contest (grades K-6) and poetry contest (grades 7-12) in Santa Cruz County and Pajaro Valley schools. The winning entries will be dis- played during the luncheon and a placemat featuring the 2017 poster contest winner, Daisy Mendoza, 6th grader from E.A. Hall Middle School in Watsonville, will be used on the tables. Also on the placemat will be the 2017 poetry contest winning entry by Alyssa Burchell, 7th grad- er from Creekside School in Santa Cruz. Approximately 20,000 placemats will be distributed to restaurants throughout Santa Cruz County. This year's contest winners will be introduced at the luncheon. Another feature of the National Agriculture Day Spring Luncheon is the presentation of the Jimmie Cox Memorial Scholarship. American AgCredit has teamed up with the Jimmie Cox Memorial Scholarship to double the award. It is now a $4,000 scholarship for a student entering or currently enrolled in college and ma- joring in agriculture. Tickets for the National Agriculture Day Spring Lun- cheon are $45 per person.
