ZANESVILLE, Ohio — U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack is coming to Ohio next week.
Vilsack is making the trek to Ohio as part of U.S. President Barack Obama administration’s Rural Tour.
Vilsack is scheduled to visit Zanesville, Ohio Aug. 31. The forum is slated to begin at 10 a.m. at the Muskingum County Welcome Center.
He is set to hold a rural forum where he will be sharing information about the work the USDA is doing to rebuild rural America and find out how the USDA can initiate other programs and projects.
Vilsack will also highlight American Recovery and Reinvestment Act projects.
Senator Sherrod Brown and Congressman Zack Space are scheduled to join Vilsack at the forum.
In June, President Obama announced that Secretary Vilsack would lead the Administration’s Rural Tour to visit rural communities in states throughout the country.
