� <br /> WHEREAS, Joseph Thompson has been a loyal and dedicated farmer who has survived <br /> economic and technological changes to lead a rigorous, but rewarding way of life; and <br /> WHEREAS, Joseph Thompson opted out of the commodity agricultural system and joined the <br /> "local foods system" which provides small and midsized farmers an opportunity to make a living <br /> and provides other benefits including: farmland preservation, less energy intensive farming, <br /> less reliance on distant food sources, increased food safety, and improvements in animal <br /> welfare and environmental protection, as well as other benefits; and <br /> WHEREAS, Joseph Thompson, as the owner of a small farm, is helping to lead the way locally <br /> in the revitalization of rural communities and rural economies by setting an example of how <br /> small farms can be profitable, attracting the attention of a younger generation who would like <br /> to farm, and creating a demand for related local business in agricultural processing, <br /> distribution, supplies, services, and equipment; and <br /> WHEREAS, Joseph Thompson has been actively engaged in farming in Cedar Grove, which <br /> has enriched the heritage of Orange County, provided economic opportunities and supported <br /> the social structure of his community, and provided income and sustenance for his family, <br /> while tending his land with dedication, commitment, appreciation, and determination; and <br /> WHEREAS, Joseph Thompson has been recognized by the Cooperative Extension program at <br /> North Carolina A&T State University with the Gilmer L. and Clara Y. Dudley Small Farmer of <br /> the Year award for his resourcefulness and self-reliance skills resulting from his adherence to <br /> "old school farming principles" that have saved him tens of thousands of dollars in costs, and <br /> for his willingness to try new ideas and experiment with practices to maximize his profits, as <br /> well as the adoption of new direct-marketing and computer skills that are vital to his business; <br /> NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Orange County Board of Commissioners <br /> hereby recognize Joseph Thompson on his receipt of the 2010 Gilmer L. and Clara Y. Dudley <br /> Small Farmer of the Year award and bestows gratitude on Joseph Thompson for his many <br /> years of farming, his leadership in helping create a new farming model, and his production of a <br /> wholesome and exciting new food product for the residents of Orange County. <br /> This the 1st day of June, 2010. <br /> Joe Thompson thanked the Board and staff for this award. <br /> A motion was made by Commissioner Gordon, seconded by Commissioner Jacobs to <br /> recognize Mr. Joseph A. Thompson, owner and operator of Thompson Prawn Farm, as the <br /> 2010 Gilmer L. and Clara Y. Dudley Small Farmer of the Year through the Cooperative <br /> Extension program at North Carolina A&T State University and authorize the Chair to sign the <br /> resolution. <br />
