FFA

FFA Motto:

Learning to Do, Doing to Learn, Earning to Live, Living to Serve.

The creed was written by E. M. Tiffany, and adopted at the 3rd National Convention of the FFA.
It was revised at the 38th Convention and the 63rd Convention. CLICK HERE to read the FFA Creed.

What do the letters "FFA" stand for?

The letters "FFA" stand for Future Farmers of America; however, in 1988 the official name of the organization
was changed to "The National FFA Organization" to reflect the growing diversity of agriculture.

The National FFA Organization

The National FFA Organization is dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of young people by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.
