Something very exciting happened this spring in California agriculture to directly benefit the Future Farmers of America Foundation thanks to diligence within the agricultural community in cooperation with the California Department of Food and Agriculture. Special license plates that promote California agriculture were designed as a purchase option for all vehicles including cars, trucks, trailers and motorcycles.
When the announcement was made that new custom license plates were available to promote California agriculture, California Giant Berry Farms quickly jumped on board to support the cause. All company owned vehicles are receiving their new license plates this week and the company is encouraging others in the industry to support this very worthy program.
The first California Giant vehicle to adorn the new plate is owned by President, CEO Bill Moncovich. The staff all thought it was very interesting that the random plate numbers on his car includes the word ‘raz’ which has a strong resemblance to raspberries; how fitting.
The state Department of Food and Agriculture reported that funds collected through their sale benefits youth leadership development, career awareness and training activities primarily serving secondary students enrolled in state-adopted agricultural education programs throughout California. The new license plates incorporate a design that includes a sunrise over a fertile green field. Superimposed over the field are the words, "Food, Fiber, Fuel, Flora." The word "agriculture," in red block letters, runs along the bottom of the plate underneath the license number. A percentage of every license plate fee is donated to the Future Farmers of America Foundation, an investment in the next generation of our ag industry's innovators, entrepreneurs, and leaders.
