What is FFA?
"Future Farmers of America" was founded by a group of young farmers back in 1928. Their mission was to prepare future generations for the challenges of feeding a growing population. They taught us that agriculture is more than planting and harvesting-- it's a science, it's a business and it's an art.
FFA continues to help the next generation rise up to meet those challenges by helping its members to develop their own unique talents and explore their interests in a broad range of career pathways.
So today, we are still the Future Farmers of America. But, we are the Future Biologists, Future Chemists, Future Veterinarians, Future Engineers and Future Entrepreneurs of America, too.
The National FFA Organization is committed to the individual student, providing a path to achievement in premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education. The organization is expanding the nation's view of "traditional" agriculture and finding new ways to infuse agriculture into the classroom.

What is our mission and why does it matter?
This year the Gresham FFA is putting our efforts strongly into our S.P.I.N. projects focusing on the need in our community. We hope to show our peers that FFA is not only about farming, but also about community involvement and working with others to achieve a common goal of better living.
