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.
