Last month featured National FFA Week and FFA Chapters across the state and nation celebrated by hosting events to educate, advocate and celebrate the agriculture industry and the FFA Organization.

In honor of National FFA Week, 115 Indiana FFA members met in the Statehouse to speak with legislators to promote the student led organization. The members were able to meet and hear from their elected leaders and statewide officials, including Gov. Eric Holcomb and Lt. Gov. Suzanne Crouch.

Gov. Eric Holcomb signed a proclamation to name Feb. 19-26, 2022 FFA Week in recognition of all the work the Indiana FFA Organization, agriculture educators and FFA advisors do to cultivate the next generation of agriculturists for our state.

Additionally, the Indiana FFA Association received a house concurrent resolution highlighting the impact of the FFA Organization, which is preparing more than 11,500 members in 91 of Indiana’s 92 counties for the over 250 unique careers in the food, fiber and natural resource sectors.
