Collegiate Farmers Union Chapters
NFU is proud to have collegiate chapters in several states. The young people involved have shown their leadership qualities along with their desire for meaning and effective advocacy in their lives.
As the chapters are formed and become recognized by their respective colleges they are able to hold fundraisers, events and actively recruit members.
