<p> Nunhems’ Salad Team is partnering with Monterey County Agriculture Education to provide students across all Monterey County schools a special field trip at absolutely no cost to schools or districts.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"> The Farm Day Experience is an outstanding educational enrichment program for all third graders in the county. It combines business, industry, and community to give students a first-hand look at agriculture. In the first twenty years, the program has reached approximately 130,000 third graders, 26,000 parents (as chaperones), and hundreds of third grade teachers in Monterey County, according to a press release. Every school year, each third grade class in Monterey County is invited to attend one of three events, reaching nearly 6,500 students annually.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"> “Farm Day gives all of us in the ag industry a chance to come together and give both students and especially teachers a short course in farming,” said Nunhems’ own Jerry Vosti, who has been participating in the Farm Day for 15 years with this year being his 10th year as a presenter. “It is wonderful to see our youth taking an interest in agriculture. This day is a true example of some parts of education that are missing from a school’s curriculum.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"> Sounds like a fun way to provide students an education in agriculture!</p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><p><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href=" http://www.nunhemsusa.com/www/NunhemsInternet.nsf/id/US_EN_USA-LTL-Farmday-Experience" target="_new"> Nunhems </a></p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
