The Wisconsin Pork Association (WPA) is excited to announce the second annual Young Leaders Program. The program will take place on September 13th, 2025, at the Arlington Ag Research Station Public Events Pavilion in Arlington. This one-day event is geared toward youth ages 13-18 as of January 1, 2025.
This program is designed for young people who want to better understand Wisconsin’s pork industry
and expand their network of agricultural professionals in the state. Participants will grow their knowledge of pork production, diverse career opportunities, agricultural advocacy, professionalism and more.
Participants will have a full day of experiences. They will have the opportunity to collaborate with other young swine and agriculture enthusiasts, tour the Arlington Swine Research Station, partake in culinary activities, network with industry professionals to explore career opportunities, become familiar with offerings and experiences that our Wisconsin universities and technical schools have to offer, as well as participate in unique recreational experiences.
