The Adams County Fairgrounds buzzed with excitement as local preschoolers and kindergarteners converged for a day full of events April 24. Ag Day, a celebration of agriculture and farming, offered these young minds a hands-on journey into the world of farming and its significance in our lives.
A highlight of Ag Day was the chance to “milk” a faux cow. A lifelike replica, complete with udders, allowed children to experience the process firsthand. Guided by volunteers, they learned about milking and eagerly squeezed the udders, immersing themselves in the activity. They had the opportunity to turn their milk into fresh butter in jars. Through vigorous shaking, cream turned into golden butter, illustrating the transformation of raw materials into food and the vital role of agriculture in meeting our needs.
Ag Day sparked a newfound appreciation for agriculture, instilling respect for the farmers who feed the world. It showcased the power of interactive learning, proving that education can be both enjoyable and transformative. This event was made possible by the collaboration of community organizations, including Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Adams County Soil and Water, and the dedication of teenage volunteers who ensured its success.
