From Washington, D.C. to hands-on learning in Virginia, a new Georgia Farm Bureau leadership program is preparing members to take the next step in advocacy.

In this report, participants in the Leadership GFB program gain real-world experience — meeting with lawmakers, building networks, and developing the skills needed to represent agriculture at higher levels.

Program leaders say the goal is simple: empower those already involved in agriculture to become stronger voices for the industry — not just in policy discussions, but in everyday conversations with consumers.

By stepping outside their comfort zones and engaging with people unfamiliar with farming, participants are learning how to tell agriculture’s story more effectively — a critical need for the future of the industry.

Watch the full story to see how this program is shaping the next generation of agricultural leaders.
