FFA is a traditional point of pride for the Oregon State Fair.
These blue corduroy jackets symbolize goals achieved and worthy accomplishments.
Be sure to check out the FFA exhibits.
It’s hard not to be impressed with the achievements of FFA members participating in this year’s fair. And should you engage one of these outstanding young Oregonians in conversation, it’s likely your admiration will only soar.
