Our farmers had an amazing time at archery last weekend! ๐ŸŽฏ๐Ÿน For many, it was their first time trying the sport, but you would never have known it as they were hitting targets left and right! They even took on fun challenges like popping balloons and knocking over cups like experts. ๐Ÿ‘

A big thank you to Archery Excellence Indoor Range, Learning Center, Pro Shop & Archery Supply and their awesome coaches for making it such a fun and welcoming experience. ๐Ÿซถ

Learning the cash register ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿคฉ A valuable skill on the path to becoming job-ready!

Our Early Work Experience program helps students build the skills and confidence they need for future employment. Learning to operate the cash register is just one of the many hands-on tasks students experience while on-site (and it's often a favorite!)

Come visit our markets with a mission and see our students in action!
