FFA Question?

Question

Do you have to raise animals or live on a farm to join the FFA?

Answer 1

There are various enterprises in FFA.  That's not the issue, its a matter of having a local chapter at your school.  I know students that wasn't from the farm do home improvement, gardening, job placement and habitat for humanity to suffice entrepreneurial requirements.

Answer 2

Nope.

You can work at a vet office, grow your own garden.

Work at a farm.

Do landscaping.

You can go and work for someone who has a farm ect.

You could work at a flower shop, dog groomer, any thing like that.

If you like tractors you could apprentice a tractor mechanic.

Anything that has to do with agriculture. You can have your own entrepreneurship (business) or just have a placement job somewhere.

Good Luck and the teachers in the FFA programs will help you find you project which is called a SAE.

Answer 4

Answer 7

no you do not, in my chapter there are a lot of people who only have some fish or has nothing to do with agriculture, but they wanted to learn more about it... as a member of the FFA you have to have a SAE... a supervised agricultural experience... you can either raise an animal, or work somewhere, you can work at a local farm, nursery, even a flower shop.. the list of agriculture jobs is endless... your first year in the program you usually don't need one, but near the end of the year you will need to find one, and don't worry, the teachers will help you.  Being in the FFA is a great experience, you learn a lot of great things, not only agricultural and meet a ton of great people, good luck with everything that you do

Answer 8

no go to ffa.org and check it out it has lists of sae's ( supervised agricultural experience) that are approved.  talk to the chapter advisor they will also have ideas for involvement.
