CDFA is joining in the celebration of National Future Farmers of America (FFA) Week, from February 15-22. During the weeklong celebration, FFA students across California and the nation will host various events, including farmer and teacher appreciation breakfasts, community service projects, and skills contests, all aimed at advancing agricultural literacy in their communities.
In recognition of National FFA Week, Reps. Jimmy Panetta (D-Calif.) and Tracey Mann (R-Kan.), co-chairs of the Congressional FFA Caucus, joined with Reps. Glenn “GT” Thompson (R-Pa.) and Suzanne Bonamici (D-Ore.), co-chairs of the Congressional Career and Technical Education (CTE) Caucus, to lead a resolution in the U.S. House of Representatives officially designating Feb. 15-22 as National FFA Week.
Rep. Panetta’s leadership highlights his ongoing support for agriculture and education in California’s 19th District and beyond. As co-chair of the FFA Congressional Caucus, he remains committed to fostering opportunities for young agricultural leaders and strengthening the future of the agricultural industry.
