March 1st Addition of New Offices at FFA Center Now Complete With the decision to bring additional entities involved in Ag Education into the FFA Center, additional office space was needed to accommodate staff from the California FFA Foundation and the California Agricultural Teachers’ Association. Officials from McCarthy Construction worked with the California Association, FFA in designing and constructing additional office space to meet those needs. While donating a substantial portion of the renovation costs, McCarthy Construction completed the work in record time and with minimum disruption of Center activities. The California Association, FFA is extremely grateful to McCarthy Construction for both their support and for the beautiful job they did in creating this new office space!
