Smithfield Foods awarded Partners In Education a check for $1,500 on behalf of Kristen McCoy at James W. Smith Elementary to be used towards Agricultural Day.  This check will provide funding for 4th Grade students who rotate through agricultural specific stations throughout “Ag Day,” helping them to understand how the agricultural industry affects the growth and development of North Carolina.
