As we gear up for the 99th Annual National FFA Convention and Expo this week, we are still reminiscing on a wonderful Fall Careers Conference!

The Michigan FFA Careers Conference would not be possible without the support of our sponsors, and industry partners. Because of your investment, Michigan FFA members had the opportunity to explore career pathways, participate in hands-on learning experiences, and connect with professionals from across the industry.

These conversations and experiences help students discover new opportunities, gain valuable insight, and build connections that can shape their future.

Please join us in thanking the sponsors for helping make this year's Careers Conference a success and for your continued commitment to the next generation of leaders!

Whether discovering a new interest or gaining a clearer picture of their future, members left with valuable experiences that will support their next steps.

Thank you to everyone who helped make this year's Careers Conference a success! Stay tuned as we continue to highlight the students, industry partners, and experiences that made the day possible.

It was an un-FORE-gettable day at last week's Michigan FFA Foundation/Michigan Corn Golf Outing! It's great to connect with our friends, judge the "Red, White and Birdie" Team Spirit Contest and offer our annual Hole-in-One competition.

Unfortunately, no one took home the $25,000 prize for a Hole-in-One. But congratulations to Herbruck's Poultry Ranch, 2026 Team Spirit Competition winner! Who knew patriotic chicken shirts existed?!
