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

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.
