CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WCIA) – Country Financial partnered with the Champaign County Farm Bureau and Mahomet FFA to host the Feed a Farmer Drive last week.

Dozens of farmer trucks lined up at Total Grain Marketing, where Country Financial gave away sandwiches, chips, and snacks to farmers. The farm bureau manager, Bailey Conrady, helped at the grill.

Conrady said she's more than happy to show how important farmers are to the county.

"Agriculture is the biggest economic driver of the county and in the State of Illinois, and so to be able to get them a hot sandwich fresh off the grill, we are very thankful to do it,” Conrady said.

For those who want to celebrate farmers, National Farmers' Day is Sunday.
