Wichita Southeast FFA

We were invited by Chase County FFA to visit the Flint Hills to learn about the Tallgrass Prairie and the journey of cattle production from prairie to grill.

Students had the opportunity to visit the National Tallgrass Prairie Preserve, tour a working Red Angus ranch, learn how goats are used to naturally manage weeds, and even gain some hands-on experience working with cattle.

Because we are in such an urban setting, it can be difficult for our students to experience these agricultural processes firsthand. This was truly a unique and unforgettable learning experience. We were also welcomed with incredible hospitality, great food, and genuine kindness throughout the trip.

We cannot thank the following people and businesses enough for making this experience possible:

Chase County Agricuilture and FFA
Mushrush Ranches
Livestock Dispatch
Homestead Ranch
Filinger Financial Services
Citizens State Bank
Harshman Construction
Hinkson Angus
Palenske Ranch
Mary Powell
Danford Family

This is an experience our students will never forget!

We will be at Southeast High School until 8:00 p.m. tonight and tomorrow night. We have tons of planters available. Come see us!
