As part of an agricultural awareness campaign, farmers and other agricultural businesses have posted informational signs on fencing along a 30-mile agricultural stretch of I-90 near the town of George, Washington, marking what crop is growing in the fields. To accompany these signs is a low-powered radio transmission on AM 1610 that plays 1012 minutes of pre-recorded information about farming and crops. A great way for the family to re-discover the “fruits of the earth.”. Next, stop in George at Martha’s Inn Cafe for what else – cherry pie! George and Martha Washington decor and a special children’s menu will please the entire family. (509-785-3271).
