Sunny skies and spring-like temperatures didn’t deter visitors from stopping by the Forreston FFA Alumni’s 37th Annual Farm Toy and Craft Show at Forreston High School on Saturday, March 8. Farm toy and craft exhibitors, a silent auction, a coloring station for kids, and a Farm Toy Display Competition were all part of the fundraiser for the Forreston FFA program.
