Premier Leadership.
Personal Growth.
Career Success.

“Future Farmers of America” – today known as the National FFA Organization – was founded by a group of young farmers 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.

Today, more than 945,988 student members aged 12-21 in more than 9,163 chapters nationwide are engaged in a wide range of agricultural education activities. Students join FFA to explore a variety of careers in the food, fiber and natural resources industry. They are the next generation of leaders.

Per the policy of the National FFA Board of Directors, a local chapter, a state association or a state foundation may not grant use of the FFA trademarks, either actual or implied, to any third party for commercial use without written permission from the National FFA Organization.

The National FFA Organization owns the rights to several trademarks and carefully manages their commercial use. The organization is obligated to protect against unauthorized uses.

  • FFA Emblem (US Trademark Reg. No. 1723677)
  • FFA (US Trademark Reg. No. 1201615)
  • FFA New Horizons (US Trademark Reg. No. 1645195

FFA has the sole and exclusive right to use its proprietary marks.

As a trademark owner, the National FFA Organization is obligated to protect against unauthorized or potentially confusing uses of its trademarks and, therefore, carefully manages their commercial use. No one can use the FFA marks for a commercial purpose without the express written permission of the National FFA Organization.

A local chapter may not use the FFA marks for commercial purposes, nor may a chapter, state association, state foundation, National FFA Foundation, member, or alumni chapter grant such rights, either actual or implied, to any third party. All of the above-mentioned items are responsible for adhering to these same requirements and standards for product purchases and must either be purchased directly from the National FFA Organization Shop FFA or an Official Licensee. Shop FFA is specifically charged with serving as the designated product supplier for the National FFA Organization, state FFA associations, and local FFA chapters and holds its vendors to a review process very similar to that of licensees.
