AUGUSTA CIVIC CENTER- Governor Paul R. LePage will attend the 74th Maine Agricultural Trades Show on Tuesday to highlight the importance of agriculture to the economy and how Maine supports job creators. The Governor will also join Commissioner Walt Whitcomb in publicly recognizing this year's recipient of the Commissioner's Distinguished Service Award.
"Maine has the most farms and the greatest diversity of food production in New England," said Governor Paul R. LePage. "The potential to produce and sell Maine products is even greater when you consider Maine's reputation for quality and the growing interest in locally grown foods. The Trades Show is also an opportunity to talk about how Maine's largest natural resource agency supports the farmers and producers who create jobs and economic opportunity in Maine."
Governor LePage will present the Commissioner's Distinguished Service Award at the Commissioner's Luncheon at the Augusta Civic Center on Tuesday, January 13, 2015 at noon.
