Missouri Day

Way back in 1915, our state's lawmakers created Missouri Day, to be observed the third Wednesday in October to "foster love for our state's history and to teach rising generations of boys and girls the glories of Missouri." I love the flowery language they used to use.

In our office, we're passing out Missouri-grown apples to mark the occasion. That leads me to consider some of the other great Missouri products that you can enjoy, from great wines, to pumpkins, chestnuts and goat cheese, you can find it here. To see what else is out there, check out the AgriMissouri blog.
