Seeds for Tomorrow

Whether you grew up in 4-H, FFA, or never even set foot on a farm, chances are your mom was a big influence on your life. Sports, livestock shows, county fairs, or field trips, moms were always there with snacks, a ride home, or encouragement when things didn’t go your way. Since May is the month for Mother’s Day, what better way to honor mom than to make a planned gift to the FFA Foundation in her name. We’ll make it easy for you to say thank you for all the miles and smiles!
