The San Joaquin County Agricultural Hall of Fame is requesting nominations for outstanding agricultural leaders and mentors in the community. This year’s deadline for nominations is fast approaching, set for Aug. 5.

Now in its 37th year, the Agricultural Hall of Fame honors those individuals who have contributed to agriculture and to their community in significant ways. Each year, awards are given to at least three living recipients, as well as posthumous ones.

Nomination forms are available from the Greater Stockton Chamber of Commerce website (http://stocktonchamber.org/ag-hall-of-fame/), and need to be submitted by 3 p.m., Friday, Aug. 5, 2022 in order to be considered.

All those previously recognized in the Agricultural Hall of Fame have their photographs and biographies on display at the San Joaquin Historical Society & Museum in Micke Grove Park and in the lobby of the Robert J. Cabral Ag Center. They are also listed on the Chamber Website on the Ag Hall of Fame page.
