🌾🐮 Elementary Ag Day Recap! 🐷🌱
Yesterday, our FFA members brought agriculture to life for our local elementary students in celebration of National Ag Week! 🎉
📖 Kindergarteners enjoyed special storytime as our members read an engaging ag-themed book, sparking curiosity about where their food comes from!
🚜 1st-5th graders explored hands-on, interactive booths where they discovered animals, plants, Nebraska ag facts, natural resources, food aromas, and the importance of personal protective equipment—all while having fun! 🌽🐄🛠️🍞
A huge thank you to our FFA members for sharing their passion for agriculture with the next generation! 💙💛 #AgEducation #NationalAgWeek #FFA #GrowingTheFuture

🌟 Huge THANK YOU to Nebraska State FFA Officer, Trey Stewart, for visiting our chapter last Friday! 🌟
Our students had an awesome time learning through your workshops—diving into FFA, teamwork, the Crockpot Method (the importance of slowing down in life), and The Game of Life (planning for the future). Your energy and insight made a lasting impact, and we appreciate the time you took to invest in our chapter!
Thank you for inspiring the next generation of leaders! 💙💛 #FFAProud #GrowingLeaders #MinatareFFA
