Description:     SHOW NOTES: INTRODUCING HANNAH YORK! Have you ever heard of a starving artist?  Of course you have.  How about that old cliche about the artist that created a solid business plan, developed a targeted market that would pay for their art and designed a solid business?  Right.....that cliche is not as common.   Our guest today is that second kind of artist.  Hannah York has an eye for art.  Specifically she crafts her vision into artistic holiday creations for businesses around Princeton, Kentucky.  She has one, VERY busy season where she must completely prioritize her business.  As her reputation grows, so does the demand for this service that she provides. Hannah is still in high school, and she is creating jobs for other people already.  She purchases the agricultural decorations that she uses in her displays.  Everything from corn stalks to pink pumpkins.  This supports local farmers, and in turn supports the economy in her community.  All of this while still in high school!

REASONS TO DONATE TO FFA: Only 2% of Americans grow and raise most of the food and livestock consumed by the other 98% as well as the rest of the world.  FFA is providing the needed education, training and resources to Americans that will carry that torch forward and insure that America continues to have inexpensive, quality food. Rural Communities will rely on entrepreneurship in the future for population growth and job creation.  The FFA is a major catalyst to that entrepreneurial growth. Farmers, ranchers and those working in agriculture give the rest of America incredible amounts of freedom because the search for food is as simple as going to the grocery store: "Because American farmers are able to provide for so many of us, they give more and more of us the freedom to pursue goals and livelihoods beyond growing the food we need to survive."
