Michigan Sugar has awarded mini-grants to support Future Farmers of America (FFA) programs at North Huron, Cass City, and Reese schools. These grants aim to enhance agricultural education and provide students with hands-on learning experiences.
The funding will be utilized for various projects that promote agricultural practices and sustainability. Schools can use the mini-grants for equipment purchases, educational materials, and community outreach initiatives. This support is crucial for fostering a deeper understanding of agriculture among students, encouraging them to explore careers in the agricultural sector.
