Bloomer bike ride teaches agriculture safety

After dedicating his ride at the 2016 Ride to Farm to the two men, Ann and Merle came up with the idea of creating a bicycle ride around Bloomer that focuses on farm safety.

Just over two years after the accident, on July 8, the Tour de Farm Safety Awareness Ride will visit five Chippewa County farms for presentations on the safety precautions taken on each of the farms.

Proceeds from the ride will go to the UW-Madison Farm and Industry Short Course’s Ram and Jeremy Seibel Scholarship fund and to participating FFA chapters. Jeremy was a graduate of the short course.
