OFI 1589: Industry Experience For Your Entrepreneurship Experience | FFA SAE Edition | Trenton Jones | Lafayette County High School FFA
Trenton Jones is a 2022 National Proficiency Winner in the category of Diversified Horticulture. He is also a former chapter, regional and state officer in Missouri. Trenton is currently in his junior year of college at Northwest Missouri State University where he is majoring in Agricultural Media, and he says that he finds himself leaning towards broadcast media at the moment. Trenton's supervised agricultural experience and business began when he and a friend decided they would raise some plants and sell to friends and family. Eventually, they went down divergent paths. Trenton decided that he wanted to grow the business and get more serious about it, and the friend kind of faded out of it. This led to Trenton taking a job in the industry so he could learn more about the business. This eventually led to business opportunities for Trenton, filling opportunities that the business he was working for did not fill. This led to Trenton's business, "Trent's Tropicals", which he closed down last January because of how busy he had become as a state officer. However, Trenton says that "Trent's Tropicals" might make a comeback. He is finishing college for now, but that idea is still within the realm of possibilities.
