If you are anywhere near youth part of a Future Farmers of America, or FFA, Chapter this week, you likely have noticed they are extremely active this week.

FFA Week continues across the country and for Heyworth's FFA Chapter, this week is loaded with activities and Chapter President, Gavin Edwards says it gets the awareness of their program out and builds excitement within their program.

Erik Halberg is the Chapter's Treasurer and indicates they will be hosting different events in the classrooms throughout the week from a petting zoo to different games.

FFA Week is also an opportunity to highlight what goes on in FFA throughout the year. For Blue Ridge's Vanessa Mattingly, who is the Chapter's Secretary, she has been talking about her experience at different conventions and trying to put to rest a lot of stigmas that still come with their organization.

Both Chapters say they enjoy promoting their chapters and keeping their peers informed of what FFA is and what is happening in their Chapters.
