A few VHS FFA members had the opportunity to go to the National Farm Machinery Show in Louisville, KY. They were able to explore the latest advancements in agricultural equipment and technology and see firsthand how innovation is shaping the future of farming. They also stopped by Churchill Downs and Big Four Bridge. Experiences like this help students connect classroom learning to real-world agriculture and discover the many opportunities within our industry. 🌾🚜
