Kyle Bartels' two-day Agriculture in the Classroom training was an immersive agricultural experience resulting from a STEM Scale-Up Award. Kyle toured some amazing facilities like Robinson Implement in Irwin, Ferry Farms, and AMVC in Audubon (did you know they're the 8th largest pork producer in the country?). But that's not all! Kyle also did a virtual tour of Grady's Greenhouse in Carroll and heard from Adam Gittins about high-tech agricultural solutions. This blend of hands-on tours and classroom work will bring fresh ideas to bring agriculture to life for our students. #workinginthesummer #iowastemscaleup #agintheclassroom
