Butte County Farm Bureau

Just a few of the many pictures from our 2026 Summer Barbecue. Perfect tri-tip, lemony rice, homemade beans and Shubert’s ice cream for dessert. So many smiling faces, dressed in red, white and blue, made for a perfect evening to celebrate Farm Bureau and this amazing country we are blessed live and farm in. Thank you for buying a ticket, sponsoring, and support the auction. We love this community. 🇺🇸 Tag yourself please!
