We had a great time last week at National FFA Convention!💙💛
On Wednesday, we left bright and early from the school! We made a pit stop for lunch, and then swung by the National FFA Headquarters! From there, we went to Hunter’s Honey Farm where we learned about how the hives work, the roles of each bee, and the different processes on the honey farm!🍯
On Thursday, we headed to the Opening Session at Lucas Oil Stadium. We listened to opening remarks from the National FFA Advisor, heard the band play, and listened to keynote speaker A’ric Jackson! After that, we got to explore the Expo, where there were SO many businesses, colleges, stores, and more🛍️ From there, we headed to Beasley’s Orchard and were able to sit in on a talk with the owner of Beasley’s Orchard, where he talked about the operation. We had so much fun here!🍎🎃
On Friday, we went to the 4th general session, where there were proficiency awards, agriscience fair awards, a national officer retiring address and more. From there we made the trip back to Iowa! It was a great few days!
