FFA Fun

My daughter is actively involved in our local chapter of Future Farmers of America.
This past weekend she participated in a plant sale at her highschool. The community comes out and is able to purchase plants and produce that the High School students here raise as part of their Agricultural Science Elective classes.
My daughter raised some honey suckle plants as well as sold some fruit from our little organic orchard.
It was a beautiful day! I took a small tour of the Agriculture Department of her high school and taken back by all the beauty of the plants grown by her fellow classmates. The new green house was so exciting to see. My daughter helped lay the pipes for the new greenhouse during her class time. So exciting to see the end results!
