FORT WORTH, Texas — A sea of blue corduroy jackets floods Fort Worth as the 91st annual Texas FFA State Convention kicks off this week.

It’s youth leadership development at its finest.

Led by students for students, the organization changes lives and prepares students for premier leadership, personal growth and career success.

The relationships and experiences this week and throughout the upcoming year will shape their lives, because FFA membership extends beyond the classroom.

Endless opportunities are available for passionate and motivated students to discover their unique talents.

And as FFA members from across the Lone Star State put on their blue and gold jackets, they harness their talents and create a unified voice.

The future can seem like a scary place. But, through the FFA, members are laying a solid foundation for generations to come. They are the future of agriculture. And the future of science, engineering, government and entrepreneurship.
