Fair Association Celebrates Agriculture Literacy Week!
In celebration of the 2014 Agriculture Literacy Week, March 23-29, the Caroline County Agricultural Fair Association once again presented books to elementary schools in Caroline. This year's book, What's in the Garden? by Marianne Berkes, is written in riddle form and will introduce children to many new fruits and vegetables.
Agriculture Literacy Week is held in conjunction with National Agriculture Day, March 25. During this week, volunteers are encouraged to visit Pre K – 2nd grade classrooms across the Commonwealth to read this book and help introduce farming to students.
Members of the Caroline Chapter of the Future Farmers of America (FFA) will read the books to students at Bowling Green, Lewis & Clark and Madison Elementary Schools, and conduct agriculture-related activities based on its contents. The same will be done at The Carmel School by a student Fair Association Member. The books will then be donated to the library at each location.
Caroline FFA President, Mallorie Wright (left), and Caroline County Agricultural Fair Association President, Francine Whittaker (center), present copies of What’s in the Garden? to Cathy McConnell, Director of Educational Programs with Caroline County Public Schools (right), at the Association's monthly meeting on March 11.
