And of course, the old, wise owl. Ms. Alison Brown! 🦉

She has a passion for helping create good humans who are sent into the world with strong character, confidence, and purpose and she believes some of the very best lessons are learned through experiences in FFA. She hopes her advice is always grounded in true knowledge and ripened with wisdom as she guides and encourages our members throughout the year.

Here’s to making this the best year yet! 💛💙
