'AgExplorations' |
|
---|---|
The AgExplorations program is centered around a select group of teens interested in agriculture. Through this program, youth are engaged in a multi-day Agricultural tour where they will ask and answer many important questions posed by industry professionals and their peers. After the tour, youth will attend a multi-day workshop where they will gain skills and knowledge related to agriculture through hands-on activities and lessons. Within cooperative groups, these students will adopt a local classroom where they will teach about agriculture through hands-on activities covering topics from Ag and Stem to Career Exploration and food and nutrition. Mini-Workshop Session (activity should be easily demonstrated in 20-25 minutes and will be repeated 4 times on Friday) | |
