About the Author: Natalie Reed

I’m Natalie Reed, a senior from CORE Butte FFA in Chico, California. I’ve been in FFA for 4 years and part of the FFA in the USA team for 2 years, currently serving as the National FFA Reporter. Within my chapter, I’m currently serving as President and have also held the roles of Reporter and Historian. My journey includes being named Star Greenhand, Star Chapter Farmer, and Star Reporter, competing in LDEs like Impromptu Speaking and Job Interview, and growing my SAEs in market hogs, rabbits, and livestock care. FFA has shaped me into a confident leader, given me lifelong friendships, and strengthened my passion for agriculture and animal care.
