Ag in the Classroom

Agricultural Workshops

Through field trips, tours and hands-on workshops, interactive training for K-12 grade teachers demonstrates how to infuse agricultural concepts into existing curriculum and meet Maryland State Standards. Teachers receive numerous resource materials and ready to use lessons in the workshops. Students receive direct agricultural training when the mobile science labs visit schools across the state.
