Crawford County Farm Bureau developed the Storytime with a Farmer program to provide accurate agricultural information to Crawford County youth. This program focuses on toddler to preschool age children. An agriculturally based book, primarily Book of the Year selections of the American Farm Bureau Federation, is read, and poems and related literature are shared. A quick matching game provides a fun opportunity to reinforce the agricultural content of the month. A fun craft or activity is provided to the children with materials to take home, in an effort to continue discussions of the agricultural information they learned.
In order to improve agricultural literacy in Crawford County, the local Farm Bureau has made it a priority to provide educational opportunities to area youth. In 2023, Crawford County Farm Bureau, in conjunction with Crawford County Cattlemen’s Association, donated eight-book sets, written by Amanda Radke, to seven area schools. These books were provided in an effort to ensure accurate agricultural stories are available to students.
Crawford County Farm Bureau, a grassroots membership organization, is committed to supporting our farm and food community. We are dedicated to working together with farmers to build a robust agricultural community in Crawford County. One of the main pillars of Farm Bureau is to create opportunities for growth. In an effort to meet this goal, the Crawford County Farm Bureau develops programs that meet the needs of not only its members, but also the entire county.
