Thousands of F-F-A members in Iowa are celebrating with special events to mark National F-F-A Week. Kurt Veldhuizen is the advisor for the 92-year-old organization which teaches students about the agriculture industry. He says they’ll be selling t-shirts and fruit baskets and some members will be driving their tractors to school.

Iowa has more than 15-thousand-700 F-F-A members in 246 chapters statewide. The statewide F-F-A leadership conference will be held in April in Ames, while the national convention will be held this fall in Indianapolis.
