The area \( A \) of a circle can be calculated using the formula:
\[ A = \pi r^2 \]
where \( r \) is the radius of the circle. Given that the radius is 14 feet, we can substitute this value into the formula:
\[ A = \pi (14)^2 \]
Calculating \( 14^2 \):
\[ 14^2 = 196 \]
Therefore, the area of the circle is:
\[ A = 196\pi \]
Thus, the area of the circle is \( \boxed{196\pi} \) square feet.
