The 2025 Agricultural award given by the Columbia Adair Chamber of Commerce went to the Adair County High School FFA. When you mention agriculture in Adair County, one group really stands out -- FFA -- working to build Future Farm leaders through experience. Students work with livestock on a regular basis in the livestock handling facility and we lead the way in the Kentucky Jr Cattleman Cattle Working Contest.
In addition, Adair County FFA is honored to operate a state-of-the-art greenhouse that offer plant sales to the community. And our shop allows students the opportunity to refurbish and fabricate equipment and structures that are necessary in an agricultural operation. This hands on experience gives students real-world lessons in entrepreneurship, responsibility, and production agriculture. -- From introductions by Ellen Zornes, Executive Director, Chamber of Commerce Comments | Permalink
