What is "Agriculture In The Classroom"?

• It is a great learning experience for K - 12 teachers!
• It is not a course to learn to become a farmer.
• It is a busy week-long experience to learn about the food and fiber system.
• It is not plows, sows and cows.
• It is a place to received materials and resources to use in the classroom.
• It is not for a teacher with only a little red wagon to haul home their “stuff.”
• It is a place to meet fellow teachers and exchange ideas.
• It is a place to recharge your professional battery!
• It is a course for the teacher ready to make a change!                                    More >>
