#58: Cultivating Next Generations of Public Servants in American Agriculture
From the steps of the U.S. Capitol to the plains of Nebraska, one can find hundreds of thousands of FFA students across the nation engaging in academic and practical agricultural education. How does this unique American institution embody the American agricultural sector and live out its values of service and education? 2020-2021 National FFA Secretary Anna Mathis joins us this week to share how the service and activities of countless FFA students and staff are cultivating the next generations of leaders and public servants in American agriculture.
