BLOOMING PRAIRIE, Minn. (WFLA/KTTC) – Students in Minnesota carried on with an end of the school year tradition and drove their tractors to school.
It’s a tradition for the “farm kids” that’s been around for eight years.
Anyone can take part, but it falls on the seniors’ last day of class before graduation.
The Future Farmers of America chapter organizes the event, and the soon-to-be graduates enjoyed bringing their farm equipment for all of Main Street to see.
“All these old tractors have a story to say. And it means something to the kid because it probably was their grandpa’s or their uncle’s or whatever so it has a lot of meaning for the kids and that’s a really unique thing about it,” said FFA advisor Bill Rinkenberger.
The caravan of tractors also passed by a senior care center to put a smile on residents’ faces.
