New Lauren LaGrande video- Rainy Spring Break in Maxwell

Lauren LaGrande from a family rice farm in Colusa County comments on how late rains may slow preparations for the 2012 California Rice season.




Lauren LaGrande is the latest in a family farming tradition that began nearly 100 years ago. She is a sophomore at Maxwell High School and is active in FFA, Future Business Leaders of America, volleyball, basketball and softball. When she’s on the farm, you’ll often see her with her trusted companion, Hank, the family dog. Lauren’s great-grandfather grew his first rice crop in the Sacramento Valley in 1916 and the family has continued this tradition ever since.
