Program Details: ALW, in conjunction with Cornell University’s New York Agriculture in the Classroom, fosters awareness, understanding, and appreciation of agriculture and the food and fiber system. Agricultural literacy is the basic knowledge that all citizens need to make informed decisions impacting careers, health, and public policy. NY Ag in the Classroom, including the Kids Growing Food school garden program and the Be Aware of NY Agriculture Contest, is available on the NY Ag in the Classroom website www.nyaged.org.

Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to working with you!
