Keystone Heights FFA

The Keystone Heights FFA chapter was established in 1996 and since has grown to be one of Florida's Finest FFA chapters in the state. Keystone FFA members have the opportunity to participate in competitions, leadership conferences, community service activities, fundraisers, field trips, and much more! To become a member of the Keystone Heights FFA,... a student must be enrolled in an agriculture class, fill out an application and pay membership dues. The Florida FFA Association is a premier youth, leadership organization with over 15,000 middle and high school student members as part of over 300 local FFA chapters across the state. FFA members participate in nearly 50 leadership and career development events each year. The FFA mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education. "Future Farmers of America" was founded by a group of young farmers back in 1928. Their mission was to prepare future generations for the challenges of feeding a growing population. They taught us that agriculture is more than planting and harvesting-- it's a science, it's a business and it's an art. FFA continues to help the next generation rise up to meet those challenges by helping its members to develop their own unique talents and explore their interests in a broad range of career pathways. So today, we are still the Future Farmers of America. But, we are the Future Biologists, Future Chemists, Future Veterinarians, Future Engineers and Future Entrepreneurs of America, too.Read More
