Comments from Teachers about our Workshops

Excellent job by everyone! An extremely worthwhile day! Thank You!

You were inspirational - thank you - thank you.

This was my first workshop and besides loading me with lots of wonderful information, it has made me excited about teaching again.

I think the topics are things kids would find very interesting and fun.

Everything was very interesting, the speakers and the lovely farm with many different facets.

The suggestions on classroom activities. The informal, yet informational format

The very friendly atmosphere, the time flies by so fast - tons of information.

Mostly, the workshop offered the overall peace and appreciation of nature and the desire to share that with others, including children.

I enjoyed the different locals, one gets to see different areas of the state. The people were wonderful. The other teachers are interesting and great to network with. The farm families are just the most interesting and such intelligent people.

I loved the down-to-earth, practical tips, ideas and historical information. Also, lunch was memorable!

The variety of information, the atmosphere, the amount of information all were positive factors.

The entire workshop was excellent, a huge variety of activities planned in an excellent way.

It was a beautiful day outside. I loved the interesting information and informal setting.

You could use everything with some modifications with any level.

The concepts and activities can be tailored to suit a wide span of levels.

The presenter was very knowledgeable and informal.

The handouts we received seem very useful in incorporating agriculture into the classroom.

I really walked away with a greater appreciation for farming, gardening and healthy foods.

I love this stuff! I enjoyed it so very much.

Very friendly, helpful people in charge and Great Presentations!

The programs was well paced. Nice division of plants and animals. Great hands-on activities.

Very knowledgeable instructors who have a passion for their areas of expertise.

The resources available to study were well presented. The tour of the property was truly amazing!

Soils activities very pertinent to understanding of the area we live in and how land use depends on soils present. Ag in Classroom offered great ideas and tools for classroom activities. The farm tour was great to show teachers how people and places need to be adaptable and versatile. The structures that stood on the farm have seen several uses.

The expertise in the individual presenters was terrific. The wealth of knowledge they had to share was more than one day could hold.
