  Mr. SMITH of Washington. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor and 
congratulate Mosby Farms in Auburn, Washington for being named a 
finalist for the 2012 King County Executive's Small Business Awards, in 
the category of Rural Small Business of the Year.
  Mosby Farms is a family-owned farming business that began in 1977. 
The Mosby family has grown conventional and organic foods for decades, 
while giving back to their community by donating thousands of pounds of 
food weekly.
  The Rural Small Business of the Year award recognizes the 
achievements of the rural industry. Mosby Farms excels at what they do 
and represents the King County area proudly.
  Mr. Speaker, it is with great pleasure that I honor and congratulate 
Mosby Farms as a finalist this year. Rural businesses offer many 
opportunities for work and promote economic growth in agricultural and 
rural communities throughout our nation.
