The Rolling Hills Heifer Program promotes the importance of youth in agriculture and is designed to encourage active involvement in the industry to develop our next generation of producers.
Each year, Rolling Hills Bank & Trust selects two 7th or 8th grade students to receive 5 bred heifers each for a 5-year period. The students are responsible for the care and management of the heifers. Annually, recipients must submit records of income and expenses and a summary of their efforts to promote the program to the Heifer Program committee. At the end of the 5 years, the current cash equivalent value of 5 heifers must be paid back to the program.
To apply, applicants and parents must follow the guidelines listed in the link below.
Applications are due October 31st of each year. Once recipients are selected, heifer pick up will be scheduled by year end. If you would like further information, please contact your local Rolling Hills Bank & Trust branch.
