  Food Production Contest Details

Do you have students interested in gardening, growing produce, diversifying their farming operations, eliminating wasteful turfgrass around your school & town, or addressing hunger in your community? 
Then I've got the opportunity for you! 

Register for the Food Production invitational contest - May 21, 2025 at Freeport High School at their school farm. The contest runs during the school day and is designed for you to bring as many students as you'd like- just one team of four or your whole class- use the event as a summative assessment!

One month before the contest your students will prepare a "shark-tank style" business plan presentation that they will deliver at the event. 

Resources found on IL AgEd CDE page.
View the flier here.
Mandatory pre-registration is DUE April 15 on ILAgEd.


If you have questions feel free to reach out. I will host an informational Zoom in March to help your team prepare for their presentation.
