Teacher Agriculture Expedition
Teachers are the gateway into the classroom. The Teacher Agriculture Expedition immerses educators in learning about agriculture in Saskatchewan with a 3-day tour. By engaging and inspiring teachers, we are building teacher champions who will influence thousands of students with their agricultural knowledge throughout their careers.

Sponsor the Teacher Agriculture Expedition, and help teachers understand the importance of agriculture in their daily lives.

Contact Leah for more information.
AITC-SK is closely monitoring the actions of Saskatchewan's Teacher Federation. We have proactively developed a contingency plan for the Spring, should student field trips not be a reality. Our team will prioritize in-school experiences and educational resources to ensure that students still have access to valuable hands-on agricultural learning opportunities.
