Manawa students attend Farm Forum
Joe Kaczorowski and Matthew Heimbruch, members of the Little Wolf FFA, were among the nearly 200 students who attended the Wisconsin Farm Bureau's FFA Farm Forum in Wisconsin Rapids Feb. 24-25.
"The Farm Bureau is proud to host this special event with the FFA to help grow the next crop of agricultural leaders in Wisconsin," said Casey Langan, spokesman for the Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation.
During the two-day event at Hotel Mead in Wisconsin Rapids, FFA members attended workshops that covered topics including advocating for agriculture on social media and preparation for college and agricultural careers. Craig Culver, founder and owner of Culver's Frozen Custard served as the keynote speaker.
The Wisconsin Farm Bureau Foundation sponsors the FFA Farm Forum in cooperation with the Wisconsin Association of FFA. This year's FFA Farm Forum marks the 40th year the Farm Bureau family of affiliates has sponsored the event for Wisconsin youth.
