Earlier this month, the Dauphin Ag Society took time out during their annual Farm Outlook event to present the Ron Brook Memorial Award.
This year's award winners were Ben and Linda Fox.
Linda says she was both surprised and humbled when she heard they were receiving this award.
"This community has such a strong support for its agricultural roots, and to be chosen as someone who exemplifies that agriculturally-rooted spirit was such an honour."
Ben adds the award has added meaning to him and his wife.
"We actually bought the farm that Ron Brook and his family owned. So when we moved here about 20 years ago, we got presented with those traditions right off the bat. Our family is always eager to work and support fair boards or agricultural societies."
The Fox's were recognized for the countless hours of volunteer time that they have given to not only the Ag Society, but also to 4-H and other youth agriculture programs in the region.
