Why agriculture is important to me
My name is Harley Casey, and I am a resident of Sequoyah County. I attend school at Vian High School. I was born in the aftermath of addiction. My parents quit using drugs when I came along in 2005. It was a very hard road they traveled so my siblings and I could have a better life, which they did. This has taught me so much, and my motto is to never give up; never let any circumstance in life impact a dream. My dream in life is to attend college in agriculture and to advance my understanding of land and soil development through preservation or business. This is my passion, which is dear to my heart. I am an avid hunter, which has helped me understand conservation and land management. I believe the biggest aspect of life is building a strong foundation in education, which I have personally seen in my family.
