If you’re like most of us, anytime you go to a FFA
conference, field day, booster event or any other
agriculture oriented activity there are a few unifying
elements that always stand-out and let you know that
you’re in the right place. The school vans, boots, blue
jackets and now the unifying agriculture license plate.
Spotting a CalAgPlate at an FFA event, a livestock show
or in any random parking lot is particularly exciting for
those FFA members, advisors and alumni who can still
recall the work that California Association, FFA members
put into making the program a reality.
For many, that excitement remains and actually
compels us to continue to push the program forward.
If we are going serve a growing FFA membership,
we must to grow the CalAgPlate program! This year
we are challenging every chapter to giveaway 3 FREE
sequential CalAgPlates. The California FFA has set aside
funds to grow the program, but we need YOUR help.
Receiving your free plate is as easy as 1-2-3!
1. Visit www.CalAgEd.org and click on the
CalAgPlate banner on the home page for more
information or complete the Specialty Interest
License Plate application on the DMV website.
2. Print and mail the application to the California FFA
at P.O. Box 460, Galt, CA 95632
