• China Grove addresses Farmers Day vendor change (salisburypost.com) — China Grove leaders are reshaping this July’s Farmers Day to focus more on local agriculture, sharply limiting commercial, civic, and political booths while prioritizing China Grove and South Rowan groups. The changes, meant to revive sagging attendance, have drawn some pushback from longtime civic participants but town officials say they’re committed to a more farm-centered celebration.
