#ShelbyvilleCentralHighSchool FFA members recently marked National FFA Week with their first annual Bedford County Agriculture Industry Tours. Thirty #students had the opportunity to visit Equine Services, Vanatta Farms and Stonewall Ridge Farms, where they learned about a variety of agricultural operations and explored career opportunities available right here in Bedford County.🌾
The students also stopped by the Bedford County Farm Bureau office for lunch, prepared by the Middle TN Beef Producers. During their visit, students heard from board members and learned more about the organization’s role in supporting and advocating for local #agriculture.🐄
Experiences like this showcase what #FFA is all about, building leadership skills, expanding knowledge and giving back to the community.💡🌟
