National FFA Officer Emily Gossett participated in the North Dakota FFA Convention throughout the week. “In North Dakota, I’m not getting the tourist experience; I’m getting the local experience and I really appreciate how inviting everyone has been.” Gossett has traveled to ten state FFA conventions this year, enjoying a very unique experience. “I was just in Vermont and they showed me a sugaring place where they pull the maple syrup out of the trees and they make it into the syrup. In Georgia, there’s a bunch of row crops and they’ve got pecans and peach production and in California, it’s all those specialty crops. It’s just really incredible to experience the diversity of agriculture that we see across the country.”
