Collaboration between Bayer Vegetables and FFA provides fundraising opportunities to local chapters


St. Louis, Missouri, USA
October 28, 2025

Vegetables by Bayer is proud to support the National FFA Organization to help cultivate the next generation of agricultural leaders. FFA chapters can kick off their spring plant sales with high-quality, dependable seeds from Seminis®, the same brand of seeds that commercial vegetable growers use on their farms. To support the future of agriculture, Seminis, a Bayer® brand, and Ball Seed® are offering FFA chapters an exclusive discount on vegetable seeds for fundraising purposes.

“Through our collaboration with FFA, Seminis and Ball Seed are teaming up to support the FFA chapters in their fundraising efforts,” says Tyler Ash, Seminis Sales Representative for Home Garden. “Supporting FFA helps to ensure a future pipeline of skilled ag talent for the industry and to raise awareness of the importance of agriculture. Together, we bring decades of innovation, trusted quality and enduring commitment to local FFA chapters’ fundraising efforts.”

Local chapters can pre-order now for early access to exclusive discounts and streamline the ordering process for affordable vegetable seeds and flowers during their spring plant sales. For more information on the Plant-Powered Fundraiser, or to sign up, visit our website: Seminis FFA Plant-Powered Fundraiser.

Along with exclusive discounts, chapters will have access to a variety of home garden growing tips for our most popular crops, crafted by Seminis experts who have in-depth knowledge of the different varieties. Chapters will also receive custom marketing tools such as branded promotion flyers designed to help drive community sales for local chapters.

Bayer will be a sponsor of the 98th National FFA Convention & Expo, October 29 to November 1, in Indianapolis. Bayer Crop Science's support of the National FFA spans 73 years, during which time the company has invested millions in youth leadership development. This includes providing essential resources and contributing time through dedicated employee volunteers, many of whom are FFA alumni themselves. The convention, one of the largest annual student conventions in the world, will host over 70,000 FFA members, vendors and guests from across the country. The Seminis team will be at the convention this week – at booth #2740 – to answer questions about this opportunity and next steps!
