NASHVILLE, Tenn. (RFD-TV) — Tennessee FFA President Weston Brown is kicking off his freshman year at Tennessee Tech University while leading more than 34,000 FFA members across the state.
A Greene County native studying agricultural education, Brown has already had a busy year, which includes meeting Tennessee Governor Bill Lee and U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins at the annual FFA Ham Breakfast.
Brown joined us in the RFD-TV Studio on Monday for FFA Today to share his journey in agriculture, how he got involved in FFA, what motivated him to run for state office, and what he’s looking forward to as he prepares to represent Tennessee at the National FFA Convention & Expo in Indianapolis from October 29 to November 1.
