West Liberty-Salem FFA member Rachel Hostetler was honored for receiving her state degree at the Ohio FFA Convention, where Mallary Caudill, Becky Wilkins and Rachel Hostetler also earned gold ratings for their officer books.
In conjunction with the convention, group members toured Ohio State University’s livestock facility on Sawmill Road and learned about the farms operations and the animals.
The FFA Chapter hosted its annual Ag Science Day for elementary and special education students at the end of the school year. Members provided in their own animals and equipment for educational stations, including pigs, sheep, goats, beef heifers, rabbits, chickens, ducks, a horse and a dairy feeder, along with sprayer, combine, baler, manure spreader and two tractors.
