About the Author: Lauren Anson
My name is Lauren Anson, and I am a senior at Patterson High School with a strong passion for agriculture and leadership through Future Farmers of America (FFA). I currently serve as the Patterson FFA Chapter Reporter and have been active on the Floriculture Judging Team, while also exhibiting projects such as, market and breeding rabbits, floriculture, and ag mechanics at the Stanislaus County Fair. I give back by volunteering at FFA and school events. In 2025, I was honored to serve as a delegate at the California FFA State Leadership Conference. Beyond FFA, I maintain a 3.79 GPA, participate in Mexican-American Student Association (M.A.S.A) at school, folklorico dancing, and am a member of the AVID Class of 2026.
