National FFA Endorsed Activities
We are partnering with other organizations to create a variety of National FFA Endorsed Activities. National FFA staff will vet these opportunities to ensure relevance and quality. These activities are not limited to FFA members. Recognition will not take place at national convention and will be at the discretion of the partner organization.
Plant the Moon
This new partnership between the Institute of Competition Sciences and the National FFA will inspire students across the country by challenging them to develop innovative experiments to learn how to plant the moon. This collaboration is bringing the Plant the Moon Challenge™ to the extensive FFA community to expand and enhance the opportunities for students to engage with NASA, space exploration, and STEM like never before.
Registration information for interested Middle School (and younger) groups (teams of up to 30 students).
Registration information for interested High School (and college) groups (teams of up to 5 students).

Make48
The Make48 Innovation Experience is a hands-on, problem-solving challenge designed to bring innovation to classrooms. Students work in teams to tackle real-world challenges, creating prototypes and pitching ideas that meet specific criteria provided by industry partners. Starting in Fall 2025, participating schools will have the opportunity to compete in a national bracket, showcasing their prototypes on a larger stage and competing to earn an invitation to a regional playoff and featured on Make48’s long-running television series.
