Hi there! I got a random refund check from FFA and I'm not associated with them AT. ALL. I also don't have a loan and I've already gotten my refund from my college for financial aid. Should I be concerned? Please someone help!

Hi I just received my American Degree yesterday and I am now retiring my jacket but I still want to see my American degree key is it ok to add it to a keychain? Or any other ideas I could do with it to see it often

Is it okay for me, my brother, and my father to take a group picture in our jackets? My father is of course not in high school and my brother graduated recently, and I'm not sure if it's the respectful or right thing to do.

Hey! I want to know how yall enjoyed the convention if u were there. there was so many people but it was so fun. so lmk who you are, where your from and how much you liked or didnt like it

My chapter is leaving today, and I figured some of yall are too, so I wanna ask what your favorite part of convention was, if you went this year.

Mine was either Temple Grandin's speech and Carter's retiring address, or walking through the main expo hall, reading your badges, and talking to random people like I've known them for years.

Hello! I am an older and influential member within my FFA chapter, we tend to not have much to do! I am trying to find activities that are inexpensive and engaging for my high school chapter for the 2025 convention. We’ve done skyjump, ate, shopped and all general FFA activities. Advice needed

I've been working on cleaning my FFA's office last year bleeding into this year, but don't know how to clean the statues without damaging them. It seems someone from years passed even spilled something on some of them and despite it being there since before covid it still looks wet and sticky. If anyone knows how to clean them without damaging them or stripping the paint I would greatly appreciate it. (Neither myself nor my advisor could find the proper name for them if anyone knows it I'd greatly appreciate it.)

I'm very new to FFA and tomorrow will be my first CDE (floriculture). I have never had to dress formal in my life, at least not since I was very young. I do have some black slacks from a wedding and a white collared shirt I got from my brother a few years ago, but I don't have dress shoes nor do I have cowboy boots. I was able to get ahold of some dress shoes that barely fit me without socks, and I assume I need to wear black socks as without them you can see the top of my foot. I'm not sure what I should do about this and I would love some advice.

I got chapter president

I am a new officer, and I want to know what we do in the COLT meeting

My ffa chapter is! Who is!!

So I'm going to nationals for the first time this year and I'm qondee how much money I should bring, I've heard of somone from my chapter spending like +700 dollars so those of you that have been how much would you recommend

Name and chapter blocked out (in Wisconsin though)

It’s my first year of FFA and I ordered a standard customized jacket with my name, and I need to know how long these orders usually take. Thanks

Edit: so it looks like there’s something for FFA coming up on oct 1st… any chance it could make it???

Hi! I’m new to FFA and was wondering where I could buy my show halter. I am showing goats, and have been to multiple stores that only supplied show “collars” I have seen some halters online, but am not sure about the quality and wanted a personal opinion. I will also email my ag teacher for more info, but wanted to see what yall think! Thank you :)))

So I'm wanting to apply for chapter office and wondering what some of the positions do such as the secretary, the reporter, and the vice president. Could somone please explain what they do? (Also my advisor said there were 3 extra positions, anyone know what they could be?) Thanks!

Hello!

My girlfriend and I are looking to start up a farm. We're currently in college right now, but our 10-year goal is to own a livestock farm with cows, chickens, pigs, and horses.

We want to support our local communities in aiding to teach kids about FFA and 4-H competitions because, when we were growing up, we didn't have access to this sort of thing.

Does anybody have any recommendations as to where to start? We want to learn more about the competitions and become qualified to teach and coach on them.

TIA!

I'm so excited to compete in CDEs again this year, specifically wildlife, but I wanted to find some ways to study for the online exam portion. I know some of the content I should be studying from my state's wildlife handbook, but of course the content changes slightly every year so I don't know what I should expect. Does anyone have tips on how I can find relevant information relating to wildlife that would be on the online exam? I live in AZ and I know that Wildlife competitions (Animal ID) can differ depending on your region.

What's everyone's favorite CDE that they've done, or what's one you're wanting to do?
