Farmers "Connect" ... through Classroom and Community Visits!

As Farmers, we have a terrific story to tell, filled with facts and personal accounts that entrance any audience. We can raise the level of Ag Literacy and understanding by simply visiting and telling our story. We can breathe new life and definition into dreams of jobs and careers that may never have been explored. We can bring increased depth and breadth of understanding to consumers of all ages about the food they eat.

As more requests are received for "farmer visits", the Foundation volunteers have met the challenge and have prepared for sessions of agri-entertainment that work as an educational tool for all audiences. Their visit may include bringing any number of farm "tools", pictures, and examples of all shapes and sizes.

Would YOU like a visit? Let us know, and we will try to hook you up with a local volunteer who can bring the world of agriculture to you!
