Minnesota is preparing to mark a major milestone for the Future Farmers of America.
Minnesota FFA Foundation Executive Director Val Aarsvold says plans are already underway for a year-long celebration in 2028, leading up to the organization’s 100th anniversary…
She says FFA has adapted from an early focus on agronomy…
“We still honor that tradition of farm students, farm kids coming (and) being involved. But we also recognize that there’s opportunities for others to learn about agriculture (and) develop the leadership skills that they need, and to really get involved in their local community and serve those around them.”
Minnesota FFA is inviting people to share their unique FFA memories and experiences. Selected stories may be featured in commemorative books, videos, or preserved as part of the organization’s historical archive as it approaches its 100‑year milestone in 2029.
