Carmi White County FFA

10/17/2026

Yesterday, our FFA members had the opportunity to give back to the farmers who work so hard and dedicate so much of their time to agriculture in our community! We hosted our 3rd Farmer Feed and this year we prepared 225 meals for farmers throughout the White County area.

Our members helped from cooking and preparing the food, to bagging and packing lunches, and finally hand-delivering meals directly to farmers. As well as some amazing help from Norris City FFA for making it easier for Norris City farmers to pickup their lunches. We are so proud of the time and effort our members put into making this event possible!

Thank you to all of the farmers who work tirelessly and dedicate so much of their time to agriculture. We are grateful for everything you do, and we are proud to show our appreciation for you!

Also a huge thank you to Kyle Hosick & Lacey Bradshaw at COUNTRY Financial

Johanna Zieren had a huge bucket list moment at the Illinois State Fair. She was named Reserve Grand Champion Showman by none other than Ryan Rash during the Illinois Wether Series show! For those that don't know anything about livestock shows, that is a HUGE deal! It was so exciting to see the most prominent livestock judge in the nation reward Johanna for her skill and dedication to showing her goats. Johanna almost didn't even go to the fair at all because it overlapped with the first week of school. Johanna and her family said "I can't believe we almost missed out on one of the most memorable moments of her life." Johanna also worked the Superior Ag Producers Contest and the Sunflower Showmanship Contest (a sheep show for Special Olympics athletes) in between getting her goats ready for the ring!

Aside from this great moment, Johanna also won Champion Aged Percentage Doe in the junior show with 9RDB Ragin Rita. Her first state fair champion in her 3 years of taking goats.
