Ag Day, a celebration of agriculture and farming, provided an exciting opportunity for these young learners to experience hands-on activities that showcased the importance of agriculture in our daily lives.
The Adams County Fairgrounds recently played host to an extraordinary event that left a lasting impression on the minds of 750 preschoolers and kindergarteners from around the county. Ag Day, a celebration of agriculture and farming held April 26, provided an exciting opportunity for these young learners to experience hands-on activities that showcased the importance of agriculture in our daily lives.
One of the main attractions of Ag Day was the opportunity to “milk” a life-size replica cow, complete with udders and a simulated milking system. Under the guidance of enthusiastic volunteers, they learned about the milking process and had a chance to squeeze the udders, mimicking the real-life experience. Another engaging activity that captivated the children was making fresh butter in a jar. As they shook the jars vigorously, the cream gradually transformed into a solid mass of golden goodness. It was a simple yet powerful lesson about the transformation of raw materials into food and the importance of agriculture in providing for our basic needs.
We hope Ag Day ignited a passion for agriculture within their young hearts, leaving them with a lasting impression that would shape their understanding and respect for the farmers who play a crucial role in feeding the world. This event is a collaborative effort amongst several community organizations and would not be possible without the teens who volunteered to assist in running this large event.
Adams County Farm Bureau combined tradition, education, and community spirit, making Farm Bureau Day a highlight of the fair.
