Wednesday morning, October 28th, our FFA members kicked off their trip to the National FFA Convention with two incredible stops right here in Ohio!
First, we toured Brookside Labs in New Bremen, where students learned how soil, plant tissue, and water testing play a key role in sustainable agriculture and agronomy. Then we headed to Wilson Football Factory in Ada, home of the official NFL footballs, to see the craftsmanship and precision that goes into every game ball.
Both tours were eye-opening and inspiring—showing the diverse career paths connected to agriculture, science, and manufacturing. We’re excited to continue our journey to Indianapolis for the National FFA Convention!
