How to celebrate National Ag Day at home tomorrow

National Agriculture Day is tomorrow, but official events in Washington, D.C., and in many states have been canceled because of the coronavirus pandemic. Emma Wilson at Successful Farming has some suggestions for how you can observe the holiday at home:
  • Make a farm-to-table meal with your family.
  • Research agricultural issues affecting your region.
  • Share what agriculture means to you in a photo on social media – whether it’s the ingredients for your dinner, a rural field, or livestock. Use the hashtag #FoodforLife.
  • Have a scavenger hunt in your kitchen.
  • Read agriculture books.
The day, part of National Agriculture Week, was organized by the nonprofit Agriculture Council of America. This year's theme is "Food Brings Everyone to the Table." Click here for logos, a media toolkit, and more ideas for promoting the day.
