Monroe County FFA is again selling Fruit as our main fall fundraiser. Believe it or not we are closing in on 50 years of continuous sales in Monroe County! (We even continued during COVID). WE are excited to announce several new options and offerings that are detailed in the attached flyer. You can email Mr. Hill or Mr. Boone but I encourage you to reach out to an FFA member and purchase your fruit and gift bags from them as it directly affects their required sales. No worries, if you can't reach a member email Mr. Boone or Mr. Hill and they will take your order and apply it to a student in need.
Tentative delivery is early December.
We are also selling tickets again this year for a chance to win one of the three fall basket's that members have created. If you are interested in purchasing these please talk to a member or call the school at 304-753-9971
Thank you so much for your continued support of Monroe County FFA and its members. Community Support is what allows us to provide so many opportunities to the youth in our county and to develop the next generation of Agriculturalist who will play an integral role in feeding the world.
