Take a look at what’s happening with the North Carolina Farm Bureau across the state this summer.
Ag in the Classroom
Cedar Creek Middle School ag teacher Morgan Meadows received financial help to use toward classroom supplies thanks to the Franklin County Farm Bureau. The organization donates time and money for activities across the district that help promote agriculture.
“Agriculture is the No. 1 industry in North Carolina,” Franklin Farm Bureau’s Women’s Committee Chair Kimberly Stewart told the class. “Without it, we wouldn’t have food.”
“It even provides us clothes, even paper,” added Liesa Seligman, school nutrition training manager.
