Welcome Back to School!
Oregon Agriculture in the Classroom is excited to ring in the new school year with plenty of exciting new educational opportunities offered all fall long! Plus, don’t miss out on our upcoming Fall Harvest Dinner and Auction.
Programs Overview
We had a busy summer full of agriculture, of course! We presented at both Summer Agriculture Institute in Corvallis as well as Cultivating the Next Generation in Medford. Both groups of teachers were wonderfully engaged and so excited about bringing agriculture into their classrooms. We look forward to staying connected with these teachers this school year.
We launched our 2025-2026 school year calendar at our annual calendar art reception at the Oregon State Fair. Twelve of the 13 calendar art winners joined us for this special event, each sharing what they learned about Oregon agriculture. We were even featured in the Capital Press for this event! If you would like a copy of this year’s calendar, head over to our website to order yours today: https://oregonaitc.org/product/calendar/.
We are excited to start up programming again! This fall, we will visit Eagles Nest Reserve for a viticulture/viniculture Careers in Ag Virtual Field Trip. We are also featuring Beef Northwest Feeders in Boardman for a special grades K-5 Virtual Field Trip. We are working on our 2026 Literacy Project, which will feature Oregon berries (sneak peeks available at the Fall Harvest Dinner)! This past year, we reached 799 classrooms and just over 18,000 students! Thank you, Oregon Women for Agriculture members, for your volunteer efforts. We could not have done this without you!
