March 15, 2026 Local Stories in and Around St. Joseph, Illinois

Kids say…

Every week we ask students at local schools three questions related to farming. This week we spoke to students at PVO South in Ogden.

If you were a farmer what would you have on your farm?
Ericka: I would have pigs, cows, sheep, goats, and chickens. And I would grow wheat, corn and vegetables.

Grace: Pigs, Horses, cows, bull, rabbits.

Kellyn: I would have horses to ride, chickens and cow for meat, and I would grow corn.

Leigha: I would like to have some cowes, pigs and a field.

Wyatt: If I was a farmer I would have a lot of animals like horses, sheep, cows and chickens. And I would have a couple of fields to grow corn and wheat.
