AKRON — Tippecanoe Valley FFA members competed in the state floriculture contest earlier this spring, finishing eighth.
Students were tasked with identifying flowers and tools used in the floriculture industry as well as completing many tasks that a florist may do.
This year, students created floral arrangements, made pin-on corsages, sold floral arrangements one on one and demonstrated their knowledge on growing procedures in the floriculture industry. The team is coached by Valley ag teacher Hope Slagle.
Team members included Olivia Jones, Chloe Haussmann, Lindsay Petersen and Bailey Bussard.
