Ag Proud

 
 
Hello everyone! Today holds a special place in The National FFA Organization's heart; today is National Ag Day! It's been great to read all of the tweets and Facebook posts about agriculture. We encourage you to use the hash tag of #AgProud. The Indiana FFA state officer team challenges all of us to remember that we should educate and AGvocate everyday not just on National Ag Day! It's important to share our stories of how agriculture has impacted us. Hand in hand with the celebration of National Ag Day, the state officers have been promoting March as Agricultural Appreciation month in Indiana. The state officers went to a legislative luncheon declaring March as Agricultural Appreciation month, and I even had the opportunity to read the Governor's official proclamation! In addition, Katherine and I went to an Ag Day breakfast at our home county. Farmers and agricultural supporters came to receive a sausage and pancake breakfast, county citizens were inducted into the county's agricultural hall of fame for their hard work, and children spent the afternoon learning about various agricultural topics! It looks like spring is off to a great start! :)
