Greater Odenville Chamber of Commerce to Host April Meeting Featuring Farm-City Speakers
The Greater Odenville Chamber of Commerce is pleased to invite members, local business professionals, and community leaders to our upcoming February Chamber Meeting on Monday, April 14, 2025, from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM at Calvary Baptist Church, located at 77 Calvary Drive, Odenville.
This month’s featured speakers will be Courtney Wrenn and Jayme Anderson with Farm City and the St. Clair County Extension, who will share valuable insights into the vital connection between agriculture and our communities.
Farm-City is a statewide outreach program under the Alabama Farmers Federation with a mission to bridge the gap between rural farmers and urban workers through education and awareness. Each Alabama county has its own Farm-City Committee, and the St. Clair County team is active in engaging youth and community members with programs, classroom curriculum, and annual events that celebrate and elevate the importance of agriculture in everyday life.
About the Speakers:

With a strong equine background, she is a certified therapeutic horseback riding instructor through PATH Intl. and has taught professionally since 2010. After transitioning to part-time instruction in 2017 to homeschool her six children, she became increasingly active in the agricultural community. Her family raises show lambs and dairy animals, and she currently serves on the St. Clair Farmers Federation Board, the St. Clair County Fair Board, and other ag-related initiatives across the region.
Jayme Anderson
Jayme Anderson is a proud mother of three and has worked with the St. Clair County Extension for the past three years.
