The West is a vibrant place from scenic vistas to diverse crops and Western Farmer-Stockman strives to bring news and information from across the region. But connecting with that news isn't always easy; you're busy, on the go, and don't have time to visit every website.

Here at WFS we understand. In the interest in better connecting to our readers we're fired up something new to us, but familiar to you - a new Facebook page. That's right, we've joined the social media crowd, but we also know more farmers turn to these tools to keep up with family, friends and the news.

The way to get our information into your news feed is to like our page first. Visit the Western Farmer-Stockman page and like it. As we post new information, it can flow into your news feed. Want to see what we're doing first? Click on the "Following" box and choose "See First" and when we post something new it'll show up on your page.

And this is a great place for you to comment on what we cover, the information we provide and other links we'll be sharing. Western Farmer-Stockman covers this region with locally focused approach. We have writers in the region who know what's happening and they bring those perspectives to you. In addition, there are national ag stories that we surface on the site that can impact your farm business.

Keeping up with Western-focused ag news just got easier. And thanks for liking our Facebook page.
