McPherson County FFA members who received their FFA blue jacket through the Nebraska FFA Foundation's Blue Jackets.Bright Futures program. L-R: Toby Sward, Jackson Fisher, Zeke Goosey, Ashton Lambert, and Hannah Goosey.
Food science first began learning and practicing knife skills through cutting fruits and vegetables to make salsa. Some of them learned that how they've always held and used a knife isn't the proper technique. Students also learned about the different knives used to cut different food items and utilizing a mercer rules tool to help with uniform size. Professional knife skills takes tons of practice so we have a long ways to go!
