Unity

Corn is the one crop that is grown in every state of the United States. The Corn serves as the base of the FFA emblem because it was used to unify our country.

Progress

As the sun continues to rise we continue to progress to new agricultural technologies and opportunities for members and farmers.

Labor

Agriculture is the backbone of our country just as it is the FFA's. The labor agriculturists have put into our country to serve the people is why this is such a monumental symbol to our emblem.

Freedom

The eagle represents freedom. On the jacket it has the ability to remind our members of their freedom and their future.

Wisdom

The owl means wisdom. It reminds us of the knowledge we gain in the blue jacket and in our agricultural endeavors.

Learning & Leadership

In our organization learning through hands on activities and premier leadership are ideal teachings.
