It’s time for the most anticipated event of the year!
Over the last three years, thanks to the generosity of our amazing local businesses, we’ve donated over $6,500 in food and household items to food pantries throughout Des Moines County. Let’s make 2026 our biggest year yet!
Join the Des Moines County Farm Bureau for our 4th annual Supermarket Sweep Competition on March 19th at the Fareway Stores Burlington National Ag Week celebration!
