The Month of March is Canadian Agriculture Literacy Month (CALM).
Federal Ag Minister Marie-Claude Bibeau has announced $415, 000 in support for Agriculture in the Classroom Canada.
CALM is designed to encourage students to learn about and celebrate Canada's incredible agriculture and food story.
Bibeau says in order to build the next generation of agricultural producers, we must inform and inspire Canadian youth.
"The objective of Agriculture in the Classroom is to spark their interest early by teaching youth about the origins of the food they eat and the role of our farm families, while raising awareness of the many possible careers in our sector. Supporting these efforts is an investment in a stronger, more sustainable agriculture sector."
