NEW ULM - Members of the New Ulm Future Farmers of America (FFA) gathered the glockenspiel at 3rd North and Minnesota Tuesday morning for the annual Farm City Hub Club Ag Day Parade.
Around 28 FFA members participated in the parade along with 10 area businesses. This year's parade was led by Blaire Aschenbrenner and Sophie Struiksma on horseback. Aschenbrenner carried the U.S. Flag with Struiksma the FFA flag. The Farm City Hub Club banner was carried by Josh Sondag and Abby Willaert.
New Ulm FFA Vice President Megan Beranek and FFA Reporter Zelli Kamm said the Ag Day parade was always an exciting time for member because it is a chance to show off their equipment to the public.
