IOLA, Kan. — This year’s Farm City Days in Iola will be “Out of This World.” That’s the theme which was announced over the weekend on social media by Dr. Siam Proctor, the mission pilot for Inspiration 4, the 2021 flight that was the first all-civilian mission to space.
In the announcement, Dr. Proctor said when farmers and city folk come together, it is an out of this world experience. Her motto is “Space to Inspire,” which isn’t just talking about outer space but also this space.
“This event is about bringing together you, all of you, together to celebrate your uniqueness, and think about how your unique space is out of this world and how coming together and working together makes all the difference,” Dr. Proctor explained.
The 2025 Farm City Days will take place Oct. 17-18 in Iola.
