Every year, we visit a farm to learn more about the animals, crops, and responsibilities of farm families. We visited Kevin and Julie VanManen's Farm in Kellogg for the 2nd year in a row. They invite some Lynnville-Sully FFA members to run some of the stations and Julie ran a station as well. The kids had so much fun learning new information and also sharing information that we had already learned. We have some pretty smart farm experts! :) Below are photos of our special day.
