“As an Ohio FFA State Officer, I had the opportunity to network with many people and ag businesses. This allowed me to build relationships and experience many different areas of the agriculture industry; ultimately leading me to my position on the marketing team at Sunrise Cooperative.” – Diana Podach, Marketing Assistant
Bethany Heitz, Grain Office Manager, was a member of the Wapakoneta FFA chapter. Her fondest memories included showing hogs at the Auglaize County Fair her senior year of FFA.
"FFA gave me opportunities that changed my life forever. Through Ohio FFA I attended a Sunrise Cooperative FFA Career Day and learned about the RISE FFA Career Program. I applied for and was selected as the top RISE candidate! I got a wonderful job and a new Jeep Gladiator!"
- Kayla Cummins, RISE Employee
Ag Teacher Appreciation Day!
FFA wouldn't be possible without the men and women who choose to be FFA Advisors.
There is no FFA chapter without a dedicated advisor. Advisors encourage,
help and prepare FFA students for a Succesful Future and career.
FFA Advisors make a LIFE LONG iMPACT. Today we celebrate and thank the FFA advisors who led their students to find a future in ag with sunrise Cooperative.
FFA Alumni Day
So many employees at Sunrise Cooperative were active in the FFA. Here are some of their blue jackets shown all across ohio.

SAE Saturday & Sunday
Supervised Agricultural Experiences (SAE’s) are entirely based on exploring passions and career interests. They are primarily conducted outside of designated FFA class time. The purpose of SAE’s are to encourage FFA members to explore something that is an interest to them.
Do they work part-time, outside of school? That’s a Job Placement SAE!
Want to start breeding cattle on the side? That’s an Entrepreneurial SAE!
The possibilities are truly endless! SAE’s are a great opportunity for students to step out of their comfort zone.
