GREENUP The second Farm to Table Experience in Greenup brought food and fun to the area in what organizers plan to be an annual event. The event features a dinner made from area-grown produce, and educates people on just what it takes for food to make its way from the farms where they are grown to our tables. Proceeds from the event, hosted this year at Imelâs Greenhouse on Route 1, go to area youth programs in agriculture.
Kentucky Agriculture Commissioner Dr. Ryan Quarles was present for the event again this year (last yearâs event was disrupted by the COVID pandemic) and had high praise for the event and area commitment to agriculture.Â

Drought contributes to increase in North Dakota wildfires
June 16, 2021 GMT
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) The number of wildfires this year in North Dakota has increased significantly, according to state officials, who cite extremely dry conditions.
Data collected by the North Dakota Forest Service and the state Department of Emergency Services shows nearly 1,400 fires have consumed about 156 square miles since the beginning of the year. Last year, about 921 fires burned approximately 18 square miles.
North Dakota has experienced some of the driest winter and spring months this year. The U.S. Drought Monitor shows more than two-thirds of the state is in extreme and exceptional drought.
