The University of Arkansas Community College at Batesville (UACCB) has officially renamed its farm education program to honor a significant contribution from the Bank of Cave City. The program, now called the Bank of Cave City Farm and Ranch Management Program, benefits from a new endowment established through the UACCB Foundation.
According to the college, the Bank of Cave City Farm and Ranch Management Endowment will provide ongoing financial support to sustain and expand the program. It aims to give students broader access to agricultural education and resources as they prepare for careers in farming and ranching.
Officials at UACCB noted that the endowment marks an important step in ensuring the program’s long-term impact on the region’s agricultural workforce. With a focus on preparing students for the evolving demands of modern farms and ranches, the program integrates hands-on learning and management skills tailored to the industry.
The partnership underscores the Bank of Cave City’s role in supporting educational and economic development in the Batesville area and beyond.
No additional details about the precise size of the endowment or its initial application were immediately available.
