During the N.C. Mountain State Fair in September, Congressman Mark Meadows visited the North Buncombe High School FFA milking booth, a fundraiser the high school holds during one weekend of the fair. The congressman sat with Caleb and Cole Gillespie, children of Michelle Gillespie, the N.C. Farm Bureau YF&R chair. After he milked Yancey the cow, Meadows took a minute to talk with the children about the importance of hard work and agriculture.
