Meet our Ag In The Classroom Coordinator!We would also like to take this opportunity to introduce you to our shared Ag in the Classroom coordinator with Piatt County Farm Bureau, Sarah Harrington. Sarah was employed at Pioneer as a senior research associate prior to joining her husband at the farm and working alongside him for the last few years. She comes from an agricultural background and holds both a bachelor’s degree in agronomy and a master’s degree in crop ecology. She is a mother of three and farms with her husband locally in the Monticello area. She is excited to share her agricultural knowledge with students and teachers alike!
