From the Farm: Agribusiness Star Maroa-Forsyth FFA Chapter
MAROA, Ill. (WCIA) — Taylor Crouch of the Maroa-Forsyth FFA Chapter was honored as the FFA Star of Agribusiness a few weeks back.
She was the state winner in AG sales entrepreneurship and recognized as a Star Over Illinois for Star AG Business. Crouch also runs two small businesses out of her house in Maroa.

The first business is a floral company called Petals and Bloom where she works weddings, funerals, homecomings and other events. The second is called CF Supples in which Crouch buys conditioner, oil and shampoo. She was the first retailer in Illinois for the company and sells products all over the country.
'I've learned a lot about the business and the marketing aspect of my businesses, which is why I am going into agricultural business and marketing,' Crouch said. 'I'm going to be a freshman at Lincoln Land Community College here in the fall so, it's really just helped me to grow and progress, seeing that it'll be something that I'll take into my future.'
