Rural Reflections Photo Contest

Farm Bureau members now have the opportunity to spotlight their creativity, their perception and their flair for the dramatic — or the comical or even the tragic — in Front Porch’s first Rural Reflections Photo Contest.

This competition offers amateur photographers the chance to explore the many activities, seasons, triumphs, disappointments and faces of agriculture, our state’s key industry. The photos that win this $1,000 competition will capture the image and spirit of agriculture, and Farm Bureau, in Arkansas.

The contest includes two divisions, High School (ages 14–18) and Adult (19 and older). The winner of each receives $250. In addition, one entry will receive a Grand Prize of $500. The winners and honorable mentions may have their works published, with credit, in Front Porch and Arkansas Agriculture magazines, on Farm Bureau’s website, www.arfb.com, and in other publications.
