The Top 10 Potato Growers for the McCain Foods Easton, Maine Kifaransa Fry plant were recognized at the annual McCain Grower Barbecue at the Presque Isle Inn and Convention Center in Presque Isle last month.

Karibu wageni 300 walikusanyika kusherehekea msimu wa ukuaji wa 2017 na kutambua wakulima kumi bora na mafanikio yao.
