What the FFA Creed Means to Me
At the National FFA Convention in Louisville last October, the FFA creed celebrated 75 years of being the official statement of FFA ideals. The creed, adopted at the Third National Convention and revised at the 38th and 63rd Conventions, holds a special place in the hearts and minds of all FFA members. The thoughtful words crafted by Erwin M. Tiffany, a teacher-trainer from Wisconsin continue to ring true today. Members of the current National FFA Officer team couldn't agree more. They recently shared their favorite paragraph and what the creed means to them personally. Click Here to Read More.
