Memorial Jackets
Community Members Live on Through FFA Jackets

After learning that his middle school ag teacher wanted jackets to lend to students, Thomas Lohr, a sophomore Broadway FFA member in Virginia, applied for a supervised agricultural experience (SAE) grant to make it happen. He received the funds but faced another hurdle: The jackets needed names. With the help of his mom, Jackie, and the community, he chose to dedicate them to 10 late individuals who had influenced local agriculture. Here’s a look at some of the legacies stitched in blue corduroy.
