Kristy Meyer, FFA media and communications spokesperson extraordinaire, is today’s podcast guest. She welcomed us graciously at the 2021 FFA convention in Indianapolis, Indiana (once we could find a place to stand behind the 55,000 teenagers and a gargantuan harvester, that is).
But we have other stars of the show as well – The Interns. Backyard Green Films enlisted (drafted, coerced…) the help of two young people who we hope will make future appearances in the agri-Culture universe. Logan and Alaina of the JABGA came with us to find out more about what opportunities are available to an enterprising young person at this venue – whether it be universities, the military, or an independent media production company. Or a really big nationally-known organization, for that matter. The FFA showed an interest in poaching our interns as well - not that we blame them.
Thank you, girls, for a lovely weekend. We’ll stand in a field with you any day. Or on a convention floor (But we prefer the field, if we have a choice).
