Youth from the Connecticut regional Future Farmers of America attended agricultural events last week at the state capital in honor of National Ag Day. The students took time to stop by the FSA booth to discuss the Rural Youth Loan Program. “I love agriculture because there is no end to it. Agriculture is everywhere,” said Claire Nelson. “Without it we would not be as advanced as we are today. No farms really does mean no food.”
