NEW YORK CITY (RFD-TV) — As we continue our Countdown to Convention, presented by Culver’s, FFA members in New York City are proving that agriculture can thrive anywhere — even in the heart of the concrete jungle. From rooftop gardens to aquaponic systems, these students are transforming urban spaces into working farms while gaining hands-on skills that connect city life with the roots of agriculture.
