Congratulations to Brenda Hardel - September CFS Cream of the Crop Award Winner

Sep 28, 2020


The Cream of the Crop Award is to recognize the dedication and hard work of one of our CFS team-mates.  This is when we proudly thank someone for their contributions to our co-op, our patrons and our teams – this award is for someone who truly is the “Cream of the Crop”!
The recipient of the September 2020 Cream of the Crop Award is Brenda Hardel!
Brenda has worked in the accounting department at CFS for 19 years.  During that time, Brenda has willingly taken on any accounting tasks and job duties we have thrown at her.  In addition to doing all the agronomy purchasing invoices, she also reconciles multiple bank accounts and is the go-to person on fixed assets.  She always is willing to step in and help with whatever is needed – from answering the phone and taking payments in the office to volunteering to be at a location operating the grain scale during harvest and operating an agronomy scale in the spring.   Her calm, common sense approach, coupled with her knowledge of all areas of accounting and willingness to help makes her a valuable asset to the accounting team and a CFS “Cream of the Crop”!

Join the Children’s Museum of Southern Minnesota on June 1 for Ag Education
Day. Ag is so relevant in our region, but many children only “see” it from a bus window. This FREE 
Museum day gives a hands-on opportunity to explore, learn, and ask questions about the importance 
of agriculture in our everyday life. Teaching children about agriculture at a young age can help 
them start recognizing how it impacts the world around them and can help them learn other important 
aspects about life.

Highlights as of 5/16:
Corn:
Planting and weather conditions are the name of the game currently. With planting progress looking very favorable and the weather forecast showing above normal temps and below normal precipitation for much of the corn belt all signs point to very good planting conditions. With that, we gave up yesterday’s gains on old crop and put in some new lows on December corn.
