Food Farm program back teaching Sask. youth about ag sector

Agriculture in the Classroom Saskatchewan (AITC-SK) is celebrating its 10th year of teaching students the importance of farming through its Food Farm program.

Over the next few weeks, those in grade 3 will be able to see how some of their favourite ingredients for familiar foods like pizza, burgers, and fries are grown.

“It’s really just an immersive agricultural learning experience,” said Chandra Gusikoski, the communications manager for AITC -SK.

Students will also get a chance to learn more about bees, farm safety, water management, dairy, and more.

Video: Kansas Wheat Harvest 2026 | Three John Deere S7 700 Combines in Action

Kansas Wheat Harvest 2026 is underway near Alden, Kansas!

In this video, I spend time with Frederick Harvesting, a custom harvesting operation based in Alden, Kansas. Back at their home farm, three new John Deere S7 700 combines equipped with John Deere HDF40 draper heads work through a drought-stricken winter wheat crop while one of the farm's John Deere 8R 370 tractors pulls a Brent 1398 grain cart.

Most of the Frederick Harvesting crew was already busy cutting wheat in southwest Kansas, but these machines remained at home to finish up local fields. Throughout the video, I explain what is happening, discuss the effects of dry conditions on the crop, and capture plenty of aerial footage showing the combines working with the grain elevator at Alden in the background.
