“We just look for little ways each month to educate the chamber membership,” Lea said.
Webb’s talk will cover the changes going on at WholeStone Farms, which farms nearly 400,000 acres of cropland yearly. After providing some background on the company, Webb will talk about the company’s expansion.
WholeStone Farms recently held a groundbreaking ceremony for its $200 million expansion project last month. The expansion will add a new cafeteria, office layout and locker room area.
As well as what WholeStone Farms is focusing on right now, Lea also said Webb will talk about what operations will look like once the renovations to the Fremont facility are complete.
“As new ownership comes into our community it is always important that folks in our community get the opportunity to interact with them,” Lea said. “WholeStone has been an incredible community partners since taking over Hormel and we think this is a great opportunity for the people of Fremont to learn more about WholeStone.”
