Welcome FFA members, advisors, and guests: Are you ready to climb the mountain and embark on this journey?! It is time that we lead with purpose and create an everlasting impact on the people around us during the 92nd New Jersey State FFA Convention.

Now that we have made it to Convention, although not in person, let’s climb this mountain together. Be sure to embrace every experience, memory, and opportunity, and make the most of this unique journey. Let’s lead with purpose during this Convention and make it a hike to remember!
