Tennessee FFA members discuss the impact ag education in middle school has had on their learning

Middle school FFA chapters have been unlocking exciting opportunities since 1988. Over the years, the organization has broadened its membership to welcome students as young as fifth grade, making a significant impact on both students and programs across the country and right here in Tennessee.

Harper Green and Paili Doyle from the Page Middle School FFA and Page High School FFA spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender on why they joined the organization, what ag education is like, and their advice to fellow students looking to join.
