Tractor Supply Co. Raises $1 Million for FFA
USAgNet - 03/27/2026
Tractor Supply Company announced that its 11th annual Grants for Growing fundraiser raised more than $1 million. During the four-week event, Tractor Supply customers supported the effort by purchasing paper FFA emblems at checkout, which will in turn
provide thousands of FFA members across the country with the resources to engage in hands-on learning experiences that prepare them for careers in agriculture and skilled trades.
Each year, our customers help turn small acts at checkout into meaningful opportunities for FFA members across the country
"Each year, our customers help turn small acts at checkout into meaningful opportunities for FFA members across the country," said Joe Fell, Tractor Supply Vice President - Merchandise Presentation, Promotions and Events and a member of the FFA
Sponsor Board. "Grants for Growing brings hands-on learning to life--giving students access to the tools, skills and experiences that shape their future and strengthen the communities we call home."
Since 2016, Tractor Supply customer donations have supported grant requests including greenhouse construction, beekeeping materials, farm equipment, embroidery machines, curriculum improvement and beyond. FFA chapters can apply for a grant of up to
$5,000 until May 15 by submitting details of a project that fits into one of three focus areas: Grow Your Classroom, Grow Your FFA Chapter or Grow Your Ag Awareness.
