The Sleepy Eye FFA Chapter held its annual Crops Show\/Trap Shoot Awards\/Greenhand Night\/Parents Night Program on Monday, November 17th\u00a0at the Sleepy Eye Public High School. It was a chance for us to highlight the fall events, the greenhands, and announce the winners of the 2025 FFA Crops Show and Sleepy Eye Trap Team.<\/p>\n

185 FFA members, including 62 Junior High and 123 High School students, exhibited a total of 889 samples of corn, soybeans, wheat, oats, miscellaneous, and forage crop samples at the 2025 Sleepy Eye FFA Crop Show.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the crop show is to exhibit a sample of a crop that will be judged on appearance: uniform color and size as well as having no defects or unwanted debris. Making a crop sample for the show involves a lot of patience and attention to detail. The longer amount of time you spend preparing a crop sample, the more success you will have in the end. After the crop show, the crops are stored until the county and state fairs the following summer.<\/p>\n

The 2025 FFA Crop Show was a huge success, and would not have been possible without the involvement of the community! Thank you to everyone who contributed including donating and judging the crops.<\/p>\n
