The governments of Manitoba and Canada are wrapping up Farm and Food Awareness Week on a positive note by providing $84 thousand to Ag in the Classroom Manitoba.
This funding will help Ag in the Classroom develop a Manitoba Seed Kit.
The Manitoba Seed Kit will help students learn about the top cereal, oil, specialty, and pulse crops grown in Manitoba.
Each kit will feature seed samples from 15 crops commonly grown in the province, and lesson plans for teachers of grades 3 to 6.
The kits will also include activities in other areas like math, social studies, health, and science.
