Hillsboro FFA


The Hillsboro FFA chapter exhibited many different things at the Highland County Fair. One of the species exhibited was sheep.

Hillsboro FFA member Lana Grover exhibited lambs that she raised, so her project for the fair started more than a year ago. Once the lambs are born, Grover performs vaccinations and docks their tails. During the summer, she works them and gets them ready for the fair.

In addition, Grover also served as the 2018 lamb and wool queen. During the lamb show at the fair, she helped pass out awards all the while having to exhibit her lamb. To become the lamb and wool queen, she had to fill out an application on how to make the sheep industry better. She also had to go through an interview process. During the interview, she had to convey her knowledge of sheep breeds, byproducts and how she is directly associated with the sheep industry.
