Kathy and Darwin Sneller of Sebewaing were honored statewide over the weekend. The Huron County couple, owners of Starward Farms, were inducted into the Michigan Farmer’s Hall of Fame Saturday. The Snellers have run their 943-acre dairy and crop farm for more than 50 years, raising 100 milking cows and growing sugarbeets, corn, wheat, soybeans and hay. Their herd earned a national breeder award for 34 straight years. The induction ceremony took place at Presbyterian Church in Hastings, featuring remarks from state and national farm leaders.

The Community Roof Sit for Kids fundraiser is underway in downtown Port Huron through Friday, benefiting the St. Clair County Child Abuse & Neglect Council, which relies on it for up to 40% of its budget. Activities continue behind the MiMutual Mortgage building at 6th and Pine streets, which started with Sunday Funday, featuring games, bounce houses and face painting, followed by Markham’s roof ascent at 6 p.m. with Port Huron firefighters. Roof Top Rally Day, a business fundraising competition, happens tomorrow.
