                      Wednesday, October 21, 2015

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Joe and Joan Welch of Council Bluffs, Iowa, for 
celebrating their Orchard's 25th anniversary this season.
  As one of a handful of local orchards, Welch's has provided high 
quality products along with a dedication to customer service. Thousands 
of local residents flock to the orchard each year to enjoy the wide 
variety of products that the orchard offers, from honey crisp apples to 
100-pound pumpkins. For 25 years Welch's Orchard has been a fun and 
entertaining attraction for children and adults alike.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend and congratulate Joe and Joan Welch and their 
staff for their 25 years of dedicated service to Council Bluffs and 
southwest Iowa. I urge my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives to join me in congratulating Welch's Orchard and 
wishing them nothing but continued success moving forward.
