Online Ag in the Classroom Resources

Agriculture impacts every facet of human life. We are here to provide agriculture education opportunities and resources to the teachers, parents, and the community. 

Looking for ways to engage your class with agriculture? DeWitt County Farm Bureau is happy to help point you in the right direction. Keep in mind, many of these lessons can be used to teach science, literature, and even math!
