HCS Ag program and FFA introduce animals and more to classmates at Farm Days.

With a 'Cluck. Cluck' Here, HCS Holds Farm Days

Move over, Old McDonald, there's a new farm in town: HCS and its Ag Days.

Staged outside Thursday afternoon, students from the agriculture program and the HCS chapter of the Future Farmers of America (FFA), displayed a variety of animals many of their classmates have never met up close and personal. They also learned about crops, spinning wool and some even engaged in a tractor pull.

On display were pigs, sheep, goats, mini horses, turkeys, chickens and other farmyard friends. There were games for visiting classes and guests were given sunflowers that had been stated in the HCS greenhouse.

Some students had the opportunity to test their strength in a pedal-tractor pull.

Johanna Bossard is the ag teacher and adviser to the FFA champter.
