4 Ways to Celebrate FFA Week

Support the Future of Agriculture During FFA Week

The National FFA Organization (FFA) plays such an impactful role in making sure our future agricultural leaders are given opportunities to learn, grow and feel prepared to feed our growing population. We’re proud to support FFA chapters across the country through our Thank You Farmers® Project, because without tomorrow’s agricultural leaders, we wouldn’t be able to continue serving fresh and delicious foods to our communities.

Every February, we're encouraged to come together to celebrate and support our local FFA chapters during National FFA Week. This year, from February 21-28, you can join in on the fun and help make a difference! Here are four simple ways that you can celebrate National FFA Week with us this year:

1. Starting February 16, nominate your local FFA chapter to become a Culver's True Blue Chapter

Does your local FFA chapter exemplify what FFA and the Thank You Farmers Project stand for? Nominate them to become a True Blue Chapter! If selected, your chapter will have the opportunity to earn up to $2,500 and have access to unique experiences relevant to their future in agriculture. Check back on Monday, Feb. 16 for a link to the nomination page.

2. Make a donation on Give FFA Day on February 26

As a non-profit organization, FFA has prepared members for careers in agriculture for nearly 100 years through generous donor support. On Give FFA Day, supporters are encouraged to donate to the National FFA Organization on the Give FFA Day webpage. By making a donation, you can help support the next generation of agricultural leaders for years to come!

3. Participate in Wear Blue Day on February 27

If there’s one thing we know how to do at Culver’s, it’s wear blue! Wear your favorite shade of blue on February 27 to show your support for FFA. Culver’s Support Center and Culver’s restaurants across the country will celebrate by wearing blue hues of their own, and we want you to join us. Make sure to show us your blue on Wear Blue Day with the hashtag #HeyCulvers, and your photo could be featured on our page. Plus, check our social pages on February 27 to enter our Wear Blue Day Sweepstakes for the chance to win!

4. Dine with us – you’re supporting the future of agriculture with every bite

During National FFA Week and beyond, you can stop by your local Culver’s and know you’re making a difference with each ButterBurger® or scoop of Fresh Frozen Custard. Make mealtime extra meaningful February 23-27 by purchasing a blue barn decal in-restaurant for $1 to support the future of agriculture.  To date, we’ve donated over $8 million to the future of agriculture through our Thank You Farmers® Project, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Make mealtime extra meaningful February 23-27 with your favorite menu items!

Whether you’re wearing blue or donating on Give FFA Day, we can’t wait to celebrate National FFA Week with you this year and for many years to come!
