Volunteers Needed!
Share your knowledge and love of agriculture with elementary school children! Our Ag in the Classroom presentations reach about 3,500 students in 150 classrooms each year… but only with the help of volunteers.
1st-4th grade AITC presentations are delivered to classrooms in February. View the classroom list to see where volunteers are still needed. Contact Rhodora at rcollins@dekalbfarmbureau.org or 815-756-6361 to sign up to visit classrooms.
