Because they are relatively easy to raise, pigs kept most southern farms alive during the early years of settlement. This also makes them great FFA project animals! A pig can double its three-pound average birth weight in a week and attain 200 pounds in just six months. Pigs are much smarter than most people realize and can be trained for the show ring with patience and hard work.

These are the kind of animals that take blue ribbons at the Stock Show. Even with a lot of hard work, young FFA students know if they’re going to have a chance in the ring, they need to start with an animal that has the qualities for which the judges are looking. These animals don’t just come in from the pasture. They are carefully handpicked. Students raise and show steers and heifers in FFA competitions around Texas, gaining professional skills and competing for college scholarships.

It is not a real farm or ranch in Texas unless you have cattle in the pastures. Happy Hill Farm is no exception, with dozens of mother cows. A good bull fathers enough calves annually to provide the Dining Center with sufficient beef, but aging and sick cows need to be replaced. Your gift will help maintain a healthy herd.

The equestrian program is one of the most popular extracurricular activities at Happy Hill Farm. Along with learning to saddle, groom, feed, and ride them, the work of cleaning out stalls, hauling hay, and taking care of tack helps build students’ work ethics. Riding horses and tack are expensive to maintain and replace. With your Christmas gift, you may wish to buy a horse, a saddle, or help pay the vet bills.

Goats have wonderful personalities. They love humans and want to be near them. To show their goats, students must be gentle with them, teach them to walk on a lead, and teach them to stand. Each goat is also given an appropriate name by the student.
