Young Advocates Storm Washington for Agriculture
By Clinton Griffiths, AgDay TV
"I learned that you have to figure out what they're passionate about and what their story is and [it's about] really connecting that with your personal story," says Irene Lewis of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. "We're seeing how we can advocate not for just agriculture but for the greater good of our country." She's in Washington D.C. on behalf of the MANRRS program. For her and others, advocating for ag is a new found passion.
