Achieve The Farming Lifestyle You Are Looking For Through Entrepreneurship!

    OFI 2107: The FFA As An Entrepreneurship Incubator | FFA SAE Edition | Jenna Spangler | Bushnell-Prairie City High School FFA | Re-Cap Episode

    Obviously, the reason that I started interviewing FFA students was their involvement in entrepreneurship.  The way that the FFA facilitates exposure and learning in entrepreneurship is second to none.  And, as the title of this episode suggests it really is an entrepreneurship incubator.
    That is very apparent in our interview with today’s guest, Jenna Spangler.  Jenna is a very competitive person, and upon joining the FFA she found that this organization served her competitive spirit very well.  Through a myriad of different contests and competitions, she found exactly what she was looking for.  Then the day came that she wanted to go on a mission trip and needed to raise $150 to make this happen.  Jenna decided that she would make ice cream and sell it to people for the fundraiser and actually pre-sold what she needed to raise.

    OFI 2103: Ridgewater College | Willmar, Minnesota | Agricultural College Episode

    OFI 2103: Ridgewater College | Willmar, Minnesota | Agricultural College Episode

    For Information Like Degrees Offered, Annual Costs, Etc., Please Click The Banner Below: The Agricultural College Episode is designed to profile agricultural trade schools, junior colleges, colleges and universities around the U.S.  This episode is an effort to replicate the conversation that prospective students, parents and ag teachers might have with agricultural schools at trade show like the National FFA Convention.
    Ridgewater College has the most unique and intriguing internship program that I have profiled to date.  And, even though there is no student housing, the options for students to house in Willmar are different than any I have heard of before as well.  Aside from this, Ridgewater offers excellent opportunities to learn about agriculture, establish your agricultural career or get you started towards your four year agricultural degree.

    OFI 2100: A Guest Speaker Can Be The Spark That Lights The Entrepreneurial Fire | FFA SAE Edition | Elyce Burzlaff | Central DeWitt High School FFA | Re-Cap Episode

    Today's episode highlights how the FFA can put another tool, the tool of entrepreneurship, in a student's arsenal.  Elyce Burzlaff is mid-way through her sophomore year of high school.  Last May a guest speaker came to her school and spoke with the FFA students.  During that discussion, Elyce and her classmates were challenged to come up with an entrepreneurial idea.  This led Elyce down a path of thinking of ways she could create revenue and determining what resources were at her disposal.  Then she remembered that her mom had some equipment that could be used for making shirts.
