Department of Agriculture, Washington, DC
The US Department of Agriculture is
located at: 1400 Independence Ave., S.W.
Washington, DC 20250. I don't believe tours are available, you'd have to
ask. The building is nice and I am sure that it does house some nice
pieces of art and architecture but who knows. ).
Its purpose is to develop and execute policy on
farming,
agriculture, and food. It aims to meet the needs of farmers and ranchers,
promote agricultural trade and production, work to assure food safety, protect
natural resources, foster rural communities and end hunger, in America and
abroad. Former Nebraska governor Mike Johanns
is the department's current secretary.
