Can-Do Challenge      
Join us in celebrating Bayer's decade-long partnership with Luke Bryan's Farm Tour by participating in the Can-Do Challenge! This initiative, in collaboration with Bayer, Luke Bryan and the Future Farmers of America (FFA), invites FFA students to create innovative farm-themed structures using donated canned goods and non-perishable items. Not only does this project inspire creativity and community engagement, but it also supports local food banks in tour communities, making a real difference in the fight against hunger.

· Step 1: Chapter members collect canned goods/non-perishable items and build a Can-Do farm themed structure between July 28 – Sept 5 (ex: barn, cow, tractor, etc.) · Step 2: Chapter takes photo and posts to Chapter Instagram page. Submission photo must tag @BayerUS, @LukeBryan, and state FFA page (@wisconsinffa) Instagram pages and include the following hashtag in the copy: #HerestotheFarmer #BayerContest · Step 3: Chapter donate canned goods/non-perishable items to food bank of choice post challenge.
