Classroom Agriculture Program Mission Statement:
To Promote Agriculture By Educating And Informing Alberta Students
Goals for Volunteers:
- to adapt the following information to their own operation and experiences, as well as agriculture in general, remembering that personalizing it is what makes the program unique and exciting;
- to use visual aids and hands-on materials whenever possible;
- to emphasize the economic spin-off from the agri-food industry following the Growing More Than Food, Growing Alberta philosophy;
- to emphasize that every day is Earth Day for Alberta farmers and ranchers as farmers are the original environmentalists;
- to inspire students to discover more about agriculture following your presentation.
