2018 Agricultural Literacy Week
Before We Eat: From Farm to Table by Pat Brisson Before We Eat: From Farm to Table by Pat Brisson and vibrantly illustrated by Mary Azarian shows readers that milk doesn’t just appear in your refrigerator, nor do apples grow in a bowl on the counter. Before we eat, many people must work very hard - planting grain, catching fish, tending animals, and filling crates. In this lyrical book, readers find out what must happen before food can get to our table to nourish our bodies and spirits.
About Ag Literacy Week: In celebration of National Agriculture Week (March 19-23, 2018), volunteers throughout the state will read a book with an agricultural theme to second graders. Students and teachers will also benefit from hands-on lessons and receive follow up activities. The book will be given to the school library with a bookplate recognizing the donor and NY Ag Literacy Week. 1,400 books were donated last year while thousands of second graders participated in fun and educational activities.
