Agriculture Roundup for Wednesday October 19, 2022

Agriculture in the Classroom Manitoba (AITC-M) has found its new leader.

New Executive Director Katharine Cherewyk has served as AITC-M’s Operations and Development Manager since 2018. She has roughly 20 years of experience in communications, fundraising, strategic planning, partnership-building, and project management.

AITC-M board chair Laura Holtman said Cherewyk is a strategic leader who understands the critical role education plays in connecting students with the food they eat and the people who produce it.

“Her talent for visionary thinking and relationship-building have helped AITC-M increase its reach in more geographical locations than ever before. We’re very excited about what the future holds,” Cherewyk said.
