My name is Max, and I live on a small family farm. I’m also a proud member of FFA, where I learn about agriculture, leadership, and responsibility.

While most kids my age wake up to alarms, my mornings begin before the sun rises. On a farm, the work starts early, and every job matters.

As the sky turns soft shades of pink and orange, I pull on my boots and step outside into the cool morning air, ready to begin my chores.

Taking care of animals every day has taught me responsibility. The milk from these cows helps feed families, and that makes my work important.
