Agriculture In The Classroom (AITC) has a lot of things going on this school year.
Executive Director Sue Clayton says that AITC is constantly adding new things to the website that was launched in the spring.
“We’re launching a new program this fall called Follow the Farmer, and registration for that will be open for that starting on the week of September 20th, which also happens to be farm and food awareness week in Manitoba. So Follow the Famer is a virtual farm tour targeted at grades 3 to 6 students.”
Clayton is also hoping that AITC can return to Manitoba Ag Days in person this year.
“So far we’re planning on an in-person show, and that’s a program targeted at grade 7 and 8 students, and we also have a virtual program that we’re launching for Manitoba Ag Days.”
AITC also plans to launch a Manitoba seed kit during Canadian Agriculture Literacy Month in March.
