دمهْض±²¥ State College sophomore Cody Grogg has received the American Future Farmers of America Degree, the highest award in Future Farmers of America (FFA). Grogg grew up on a farm in Gilmer County and graduated from Gilmer County High School in 2009. For his FFA project he raised beef cattle.
أ¢آ€آœIt is an honor to receive this award. FFA has truly prepared me for all my studies at GSC,أ¢آ€آ said Grogg.
Future Farmers of America was founded by a group of young farmers in 1928. Their mission was to prepare future generations for the challenges of feeding a growing population and they taught this nation that agriculture is more than planting and harvesting - it is a science, a business and an art. FFA students have gone on to be biologists, chemists, veterinarians, engineers, entrepreneurs, and many more careers that help better agriculture in America.
