NEW HANOVER COUNTY Farm Bureau is sponsoring the New Hanover County 4-H Acres of Adventure program, which targets students in third through fifth grades to teach them agricultural literacy and agricultural science through hands-on learning. With its $1,000 contribution, New Hanover County Farm Bureau allowed 85 students from area afterschool programs to participate.
