This year's 2026 BCFB JUNIOR Ambassador is Garrett Heffner 

Garrett was also awarded as one of two 2025 BCFB Junior Ambassadors last year alongside Midori 6Dooling, and returns as 2026 BCFB Junior Ambassador for 2026.  He is an upcoming 7th grader at Hereford Middle School. 

He is an active 4-H and FFA member and recently competed at the Maryland FFA State Convention. This summer, he will be showing a dairy heifer, beef steer and two pigs through programs supported by previous and current Farm Bureau members. Way to go, Garrett.

This year's 2026 BCFB Ambassador is Finley Radebaugh. She’s going into her senior year at Maryvale Preparatory School and she is a fifth-generation farmer. Her great-great-grandfather, George Radebaugh, started their family’s greenhouse business, and growing up with greenhouses in her backyard has given her a deep appreciation for agriculture and the hard work it takes to keep it going. 

Working at The Farmyard and some of their offsite events has allowed her to teach others about agriculture and animals while continuing to learn more herself. She is excited to serve as an Ag Ambassador because she wants to share the importance of agriculture with others, learn more about the animal agriculture industry, and represent Baltimore County agriculture. Congratulations, Finley.
