AITC-SK is Fun & Critically Important for Agriculture
As we reflect on the past school year, we are proud of the profound impact we've made. Fun is integrated into our offerings for very important reasons: to captivate students, create positive and memorable connections, and inspire a love for agriculture.

But the work is also critical for the future of agriculture as we provide the future YOU with skills, knowledge, and experiences to cultivate the next generation of decision-makers and policy builders.

We are committed to continuing this meaningful work next school year. Thank you to all who have supported our journey, especially our host partners and volunteers.
AITC STORIES AROUND THE PROVINCE
Celebrating 10 Years of Food Farms with 10 Locations
Over the past decade, thousands of students have experienced the immersive agricultural learning of a Food Farm. Food Farms play a crucial role in educating the next generation about the importance of agriculture and its impact on our daily lives.

The 10 locations include Swift Current, Prince Albert, Lumsden, Kindersley, Melfort, Moose Jaw, Yorkton, Norquay, Tisdale, Watrous. Watch for our 10 Year celebration in the Fall.
"The Food Farm provided an experience for my students that I could not give them in the classroom." - Nicole Jacobson, All Saints Catholic School, Swift Current.

Fantastic Student Reach!
Classroom Presentations
Teachers invite AITC-SK into their classrooms to facilitate a hands-on agriculture presentation. Students are engaged in learning as they get their hands dirty, exploring topics such as farm business management, the dirt on soil, where ingredients to make pizza and muffins come from, and more!
Farm & Ag Tours
33 classrooms from around the province were awarded a Farm & Ag Tour bursary that covered bussing costs to visit a farm! The expense is often a barrier for teachers, and the bursary provides students with the opportunity to experience a farm first-hand and often for the very first time.
33 CLASSROOMS
833 STUDENTS
Thank you Farm & Ag Tour hosts, for inviting students to learn about agriculture at your farm!
