The Blue Ridge FFA Chapter wrapped up its celebration of National FFA Week and one of the highlights was a new wrinkle to one of their annual activities.

During FFA Week, Blue Ridge FFA members hold a pep assembly for junior high and high school students. Carmen Ellis is the Chapter President and indicates that this year, they tried something new during the assembly.

The 'Barnyard' program during FFA Week is a lot of fun for elementary students to get hands-on experience with farm animals. Chapter Sentinel Ava Puallin indicates they have a student in FFA whose record book is ag education.

National FFA Week was celebrated in schools across the country this week. Learn more about the Blue Ridge FFA Chapter by finding them on Facebook or Instagram.
