California Farm Day – Elementary Students
February 27, 2025
10 a.m.-11 a.m. (PT)
Join us for an extraordinary virtual journey into California agriculture!
Agriculture is more than tending crops and milking cows. Agriculture thrives on a diverse network of scientists, growers, mechanics, markets, educators…and many more who all play a role in getting California’s 400 commodities from farm, field or forest to you.
Through a mix of pre-recorded segments and live interactive hosts, classrooms will explore what it means to work in the wide and wonderful world of agriculture. Our newest edition of the “What’s Growin’ On?” student newspaper with the theme of “Imagine your Future in Agriculture” will act as a guide for our Farm Day adventures.
This registration is for the Farm Day intended for elementary students in grades PreK-5.
