Tractor Supply Company announced today the launch of its 11th annual Grants for Growing fundraiser, empowering FFA students nationwide with hands-on learning experiences that prepare them for careers in agriculture and skilled trades.

"We are incredibly grateful to our communities that show up year after year to support FFA," said Kimberley Gardiner, Chief Marketing Officer at Tractor Supply. "Grants for Growing helps create a lasting impact by opening doors for students to gain hands-on experience, pursue their passions and carry the values of hard work and service into their communities."

Tractor Supply has been a proud partner of FFA since 1985, donating nearly $24 million through various initiatives to support FFA's work preparing members for leadership and careers in the science, business and technology of agriculture. In 2016, Tractor Supply introduced the Grants for Growing fundraiser, which raises money to provide grants to FFA chapters across the country. As demand for skilled agricultural and technical careers continues to grow, Grants for Growing helps ensure students have access to the facilities, tools and experiences needed to succeed. The nearly $1 million raised during the 2025 campaign funded projects that are already transforming local communities including:

Construction of a new FFA barn in Milan, Michigan. Students can now engage in hands-on animal care and develop the veterinary skills needed to raise and care for healthy animals.

Development of a small poultry operation on the FFA farm property in Ignacio, Colorado. The project will take students through the process of raising chickens, ducks and turkeys during their entire life cycle. Poultry products will be sold to a local store to sustain the project.

Overhaul of the agricultural power systems program through electrical, fluid, diesel, precision and mechanical system functions in tractors and small engines in Milford, Texas. With grant funding, the chapter purchased materials that will be used to meet state teaching standards in the course and train tractor technicians for career development events (CDEs) and real-world careers.

FFA chapters can begin applying for a grant of up to $5,000 on March 3 by submitting details of a project that fits into one of three focus areas: Grow Your Classroom, in which funding can be used to support increasing students' classroom knowledge; Grow Your FFA Chapter, in which funding can be used to support the development or expansion of an FFA chapter and leadership opportunities; and Grow Your Ag Awareness, in which funding can be used to support the development or expansion of an agricultural literacy event or campaign.

Tractor Supply also supports FFA members through the FFA Future Leaders Scholarship program. Established in 2022, Tractor Supply committed $5 million over five years, making it the largest agriculture scholarship fund of its kind. Through the fund, nearly 300 students have been awarded scholarships to support their ongoing education at four-year universities, two-year colleges or vocational and trade schools.
