How Am I Connected to Agriculture?
When a child asks where their food comes from, a common response may be the grocery store, a restaurant, their parents or guardian, or somewhere else. While they are not wrong, there is more to the process. When you eat and wear clothes, you’re involved in agriculture. In this lesson, students will link the food they eat and the products they use to production on a farm. Students will conduct research projects, group presentations, and create a whole-class farm web.
