This Thanksgiving, Raise Your Voices Too

Every Thanksgiving we raise a glass to make a toast, most often to give thanks for our many blessings. This year, let's make sure to "raise our voices" too. As Thanksgiving draws near, remember to talk to family and friends about the amazing abundance agriculture provides for us all.

For ideas and to join the discussion, go to: http://usfraonline.org/raise-your-voices/

The Results Are In

FFA has a strong presence in Florida and Florida agriculture. Many current class members and Wedgworth Alumni have been invovled in or with FFA over the years. Now that the mayhem of the National FFA Convention is subsiding, it is time to meet the new National FFA Officers. Click on the picture below to be taken straight to the story!

What We're All About

This is what we're all about!

Notice the fear and trepidation on my face and the eager look on Jeff's - zip lining through the redwoods in Sonoma tested my lung capacity for screaming and pushed me way past my comfort zone. I am now a true tree hugger as I grabbed the trunk and held on for dear life after making my first zip segment -- my knees were atremble! The ONLY reason I tried this is because Joey, Fred and especially Avery inspired me to face my fear of heights. Not over it by any means, but I did survive!
