WILLISTON, N.D. • Western Cooperative Credit Union says it has donated the first installment of $10,000 to the Williston Research Extension Center Seed Plant.
WCCU Board of Directors and President/CEO Melanie Stillwell presented the donation to Jerry Bergman of NDSU Williston Research Extension Center at the November board meeting.
“We feel the support for this seed plant is important, especially as an agricultural Credit Union in Western North Dakota,” Stillwell said.
The new seed conditioning plant brings the latest in seed-cleaning technologies to Northwestern North Dakota, which WCCU says has been much-needed to support farmers in the local communities.
