Wisconsin Ag in the Classroom Program

Today is World Environment Day! 🌎

Wisconsin farmers are stewards of the land, water and natural resources.

Wisconsin is home to 1.28 million dairy cows? 🐄

Our leading ladies produce approximately 8-10 gallons of milk a day. Most of that milk is made into cheese, earning us the proud title of America's Dairyland! 🧀

Today is National Cheese Day! 🧀

Which of Wisconsin's 600 types, styles or varieties of cheese is your favorite? Let us know in the comments!

June is Dairy Month! 🐄

We are proud to call America's Dairyland home! Celebrate with us all month long as we share dairy-inspired lessons and farm facts.

Welcome to June! Our theme this month is DAIRY! 🐄🧀

Our book of the month is "Tales of a Dairy Godmother: Chuck's Ice Cream Wish." Stay tuned for a Read and STEAM lesson for your summer ag literacy activities!

This month we are looking forward to connecting at upcoming conferences and conventions! Will we see you this June?

plants can grow twice as fast in hydroponic systems?
