  Take Me Out to the Cornfield VHS/DVD :
A 24-minute video ties agriculture to America’s favorite pastime – baseball – as each inning highlights one of Maryland’s top agricultural commodities. Film locations include various farms and agricultural operations, as well as Ripken Stadium and Camden Yards.


  Digital Atlas of Maryland Agriculture :
A wealth of information is provided in the nearly 100 Maryland maps and lesson plans which include regional maps, climate, commodity value and production numbers, land use, number of farms and much more.

  Maryland Agriculture Map :
Colorful maps showing the top three agriculture products in each Maryland county with accompanying lesson plans provide a valuable tool to assist educators in teaching geography and science while students learn about agriculture.

  Teacher's Guide :
The comprehensive teacher guide accompanying these resources includes lesson plans, worksheets and a variety of age-specific learning activities. The guide makes the Resource Kit ready for immediate implementation into the classroom.
