Volunteers Wanted For Canadian Agriculture Literacy Month

Agriculture in the Classroom Manitoba (AITC-M) is gearing up for Canadian Agriculture Literacy Month (CALM) coming up in March.

Sue Clayton is executive director.

"This year we've just recently made the difficult decision that we will not be going in person into classrooms but we're still doing virtual visits," she said. "We're asking people to register to volunteer to go into classrooms around Manitoba virtually. If people are interested in that, I would encourage them to go to our website."

Volunteers have until February 4th to register.

Clayton says this year a seed kit will be provided to teachers to assist with the agriculture programming.

Video: Building a Responsible, Resilient Pork Supply Chain

From farm to fork, today’s food supply chain depends on a transparent, resilient and responsible pork supply chain. The We Care® platform and the Pork Cares Farm Impact Report are designed to support what the food industry supply chain expects from its pork partners: strong animal care, food safety, worker safety, environmental stewardship and sustainability. These programs also help build and maintain trust in the communities where pigs are raised.
