Agriculture In The Classroom Establishes Board Advisory Committee

Agriculture in the Classroom Canada (AITC-C), along with its ten provincial member organizations, has established a Board Advisory Committee (BAC) to offer insight and expertise.
 
“We are so excited to welcome these agriculture education champions from a diverse cross section of Canadian agriculture,” said Johanne Ross, Executive Director of AITC-C. “We have been lucky to appoint seven highly knowledgeable professionals with a wealth of experience from the sector. We are excited to see how they will help guide our organization to greatness.”
 
The seven appointees were chosen by the AITC Board Nominations Committee and will serve a two-year term.
 
The following individuals have been appointed to the BAC: Agassou Jones (NS), Becky Parker (BC), Kelly Green (MB), Lindsey Verhaeghe (AB), Nadine Sisk (ON), Teresa Vallotton (MB) and Trish Jordan (MB).
 
As a volunteer group, the BAC will meet at least twice a year.
 
The BAC will support AITC-C in efforts to build its profile, enhance communications, and build fundraising strategies.
 
The committee will review and support the development of strategic plans, while being a sounding board for new ideas and champion AITC-C within their own networks.

Video: Dream Projects Made Real | BX Summer Contest Winner Stories



Three women. Three properties. Three summers that changed everything.

Meet the 2025 Kubota BX Summer Contest winners — and watch what happened when their biggest plans finally had the power to match them.

Akesh transformed her 9.8-acre property in just 3 months — clearing a historic barn, building a cottage garden, and growing vegetable beds for her family. Kathleen rebuilt her yard from the ground up after the 2023 wildfires devastated her property — creating a space where her children could play and grow again. Teresa reclaimed her family's 97-acre Ontario farm — moving topsoil, restoring fields, and honouring her mother's memory one season at a time.

Three dream projects. Three stories of vision, resilience, and hard work. One unforgettable summer with a Kubota BX.

"The BX made everything happen so quick." — Akesh "I feel like I can make a huge difference." — Kathleen "It's a dream come true. The answer to my prayers." — Teresa
