🌾🚜 West Bladen FFA on the Road! 🚜🌾

West Bladen FFA students had an incredible day exploring Southern Farm Days 2026, the 16th Annual celebration of tractors, tradition, and southern charm—hosted at the Boys & Girls Home Horse Arena Complex in Lake Waccamaw!

Students were able to dive into historical farm equipment, explore the history of agriculture, and experience hands-on learning that connects directly to what we do in the classroom every day. From modern technology to traditional practices, this trip truly brought agriculture to life!

Experiences like this help inspire the next generation of agricultural leaders and strengthen our passion for agriculture. 🌱💚
A huge thank you to the Lake Waccamaw Boys & Girls Home and all who made this opportunity possible—we appreciate your continued support of our students and our program!
