FREDERICKTOWN — The Fredericktown FFA Chapter recently hosted its 2025 Ag Day event.
Every year, the FFA reaches out to farms, community members, and agricultural businesses to put on this educational event for all students. This year, a number of businesses participated and contributed to the effort.
During this year’s Ag Day, FFA members were tasked with watching the animals and
ensuring their well-being, leading groups of students through the experience, and assisting the businesses and groups that came to contribute to the day.
The goal of the event was to educate students in K-12 on various areas of agriculture and the part it plays in their lives.
A huge thank you goes out to the Knox County Soil and Water Conservation District for the educational trailers and Diamond B Drone Solutions for drone demonstrations and education throughout the day.
The Traveling Acres Petting Zoo provided animals, including a camel, Scottish Highland cattle, and giant rabbits. Mrs. Huvler and her students provided fun recreational activities, and the Fredericktown Parks Department provided an area for the event.
The FFA chapter appreciates the members, families, and supporters for donating their tractors, animals, and time to this event.
