The Wisconsin Farm Bureau Foundation’s Ag in the Classroom program has awarded $6,898 to schools and organizations to expand agricultural literacy. Groups, schools and organizations can apply for up to $500 as part of the Ag in the Classroom’s matching grant program to support a project, provided they have a source of matching funds.
2021 Recipients:
Bonduel Agriculture Department and FFA, Bonduel – Bonduel Chicken Coop: $500
The chicken coop will be used to raise broiler chickens in order that middle school students can see firsthand how animal agriculture works. The goal is to raise 25 broiler chickens during the school year and hopefully have the chicken served during school lunch.
