Each year, over 300 young leaders are elected to represent their FFA Associations as state officers. During their year of service, they take time away from their personal lives to travel and serve as ambassadors for the organization and the agricultural industry.
Part of those travels is attending the annual State Officer Summit, which is hosted in Washington, DC, by the National FFA officer team.
There, state officers learn how to be agricultural advocates and put their skills to the test as they meet with their own legislators on Capitol Hill to advocate on behalf of agriculture, agricultural education, and FFA.
Florida’s FFA State President Hope Storter spoke with RFD-TV’s own Suzanne Alexander about her FFA experience, her favorite part of the summit, and shares lessons for fellow members.
Student volunteers at the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo are teaching visitors about agriculture through the FFA Children’s Barnyard ahead of the Junior Sale of Champions.
