  RECOGNIZING THE HART FAMILY AS WASHINGTON COUNTY FARM FAMILY OF THE 
                                  YEAR

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. JOHN BOOZMAN

                              of arkansas

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 29, 2010

  Mr. BOOZMAN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the John Robert 
Hart family for earning the 2010 Farm Family of the Year award for 
Washington County, Arkansas.
  Working for generations on the farm, the Hart family has a history 
rooted in Arkansas agriculture. John grew up on his farm and continues 
to run it today with his wife, Carolyn.
  Today the Harts have a 250 acre farm where they produce dairy and 
poultry products, as well as three different varieties of hay. The 
family is dedicated to agriculture and plans to continue running the 
farm for generations to come.
  Because of this lifelong commitment, their hard work and dedication 
the Hart Family is most deserving of the Washington County Farm Family 
of the Year Award. Recognition from the program is a reflection of the 
contribution to agriculture at the community and state level and its 
implications for improved farm practices and management.
  Arkansans are blessed to have such outstanding farm families like the 
Harts who are dedicated to providing agriculture services to their 
community and country. I ask my colleagues today to join with me in 
congratulating the Harts on their achievements and wish them continued 
success in farming.
