Leilehua FFA member Pookela Kauhane designed and built a mobile farm stand that’s changing the way his chapter sells produce grown on their school farm. What started as an old dirt bike trailer is now an eye-catching setup that makes market days easier and helps draw in more customers. 👏

Along the way, Pookela taught himself new skills like welding, woodworking and construction, all through his SAE. Experiences like these show the power of agricultural education and hands-on learning.

Thank you to everyone who has worked with me over the years that I have served as Mississippi FFA Alumni and Supporters Coordinator. I have enjoyed working with everyone. I have enjoyed seeing us recognize individuals and help FFA. I thank my family for allowing me to serve and helping me with so many activities. Since 1991 I have served on a volunteer basis in this position. It is time for someone else to take this position and I ask you to support them and help this organization to grow and to provide opportunities for FFA members.
I give a special thank you to all who had a part in presenting me the Golden Boy rifle as my retirement gift. It was too generous, but it will always be a truly special gift that I will always cherish.
I hope to see you at an activity in the future. God Bless.
I ask you to support our new Mississippi FFA Alumni and Supporters State Coordinator Mrs. Shelly Pulliam. Please contact her with all FFA Alumni business and questions at:
