"Wabaunsee County Farm Bureau Poster Contest 2025
2025 will mark the 75th year of Kansas Farm Bureau’s safety poster program.
Over the years, this initiative has been a fantastic way for youth to visualize and learn about staying safe on the farm, and we’re ready to celebrate.
The 2025 theme is “75 Years of Kansas Farm Safety – Safety is Always in Style!”
To honor this legacy, and continue inspiring the next generation, all prize amounts have been increased by $75.
Children in grades 1-6 are eligible to enter. Prizes for winners at the state level are as follows: 1st place = $175, 2nd place = $150 and 3rd place = $125.
In addition, the teacher of each of the top three winners in each division (Div. I – Grades 1-2, Div. II – Grades 3-4 and Div. III – Grades 5-6) will receive a $75 gift card to promote agriculture in their classroom.
Wabaunsee County has had a top three winner in 2023 and 2024 so I’m really looking forward to seeing the awesome 75th anniversary posters!"
