Students Moove from School to Dairy Farm

Julia Fouts


Got Milk? Fouts Dairy Farm does! On Wednesday, November 14th, FFA members and an animal science class from Homer High School took a field trip to Fouts Farm. Mrs. Pratt and Mrs. Whitlock chaperoned the event. Mrs. Pratt is the advisor of FFA and the animal science teacher at the high school. About twenty students went on this trip to tour the dairy farm and learn about agriculture. Kassy Delia, a member of FFA, said, “It was a fun and interesting trip. I learned a lot of different things about farming!” Paul and Laura Fouts were the hosts of the field trip and are part-owners of Fouts Farm. Paul Fouts gave the tour and explained how farms work while answering any questions the students and teachers had. Students interested in farming got a first-hand look at today’s agriculture.
