Four MN FFA’ers Named Stars

The Star Farmer is McKade Tewes of Jackson County Central. Willian Bastian of Gibbon-Fairfax-Winthrop FFA is the Star in Production, and the Star in Agriculture, Food and Natural Resource Sciences is Marin Knott of Tracy Area FFA. The Star in Agribusiness honor went to Jilian Schoenfeld. “I was super duper excited,” said Schoenfeld. “Being just a junior I don’t have the same amount of records that the other candidates did; having won this as a junior is kind of a big deal and I was just ecstatic.” Schoenfeld was recognized for her work at a local veterinary clinic. “I believe that I’m going to end up going to SDSU for a major in animal science with a science specialization, not necessarily the pre-vet route, but something with embryos and genetics.”
