Description

In honor of National FFA Week (Feb 21–28), Southern Indiana Now digs deep into the roots of 

our local agricultural community. We’re highlighting the students, educators, and alumni who make Jackson County a powerhouse for the next generation of leaders. From the halls of Seymour High School to the lifelong impact on local alumni, we explore how the "Blue Jacket" shapes more than just farmers—it builds the future of our community.

Hoosier Homestead: Seymour FFA officers join us to discuss the heartbeat of their chapter. We talk about their experiences in the chapter and some of their favorite FFA moments. 

Hoosier Hustle: Grant Hackman of Beacon Credit Union shares their commitment to the Agriculture community, the engine of our local economy, and this segment focuses on the "Hustle" required to keep it running. Grant also shares how his time in the FFA program at Trinity Lutheran High School  prepared him for the professional world, proving that FFA values extend far beyond graduation.

Hoosier Happenings:  What’s happening in the Seymour High School Ag classrooms and shops today? Our local Ag teachers and advisors pull back the curtain on modern agricultural education and the FFA experience

Hoosier Heart: We close the show with the "Heart" of the organization. We learn more about the importance of FFA in shaping our future leaders in the Ag community and beyond.
