Natosha Brinkley

Project Name:

A Growing Field

Ms. Brinkley will partner with Andy Gray and Tracy and Sheila Jenkins of the Iredell County Farm Bureau to cultivate an informed understanding of North Carolina’s agriculture industry and the role students could play in its future.

She will play an active role in helping Iredell County students understand how agriculture has changed over the years and continues to transition, locally. By engaging students in this discussion, she is also helping them to understand the importance of collaboration, communication and critical-thinking, which all stand as essential to success in a 21st century workplace.
