Chapters across Door and Kewaunee counties are celebrating National FFA Week a little bit differently this year due to the pandemic. Many of their outings have either been canceled or taken place virtually. At Kewaunee, their FFA chapter will distribute dairy products to students but will also take a year break from hosting elementary school kids for a petting zoo as a part of its festivities. Kewaunee FFA Advisor and agriculture teacher Randy Charles says they are continuing to look for ways to promote agriculture in the district. One of those ideas could have a big impact on the community.
Charles added its 50-plus member chapter is working towards competitions taking place later in the year even though like many other things, they will be taking place virtually. This is part of series of stories highlighting the area’s active chapters.
