ONE FELLOWSHIP AVAILABLE
North Carolina Farm Bureau Ag in the Classroom (AITC) promotes the importance of agriculture to all North Carolina teachers and students through various program areas. The selected Kenan Fellow will immerse with local farmers and experts to help NC Farm Bureau and Henderson County Farm Bureau create the newest “Ag Mag” with this year’s focus: Apples. Ag Mags are engaging four-page informational readers focused on agricultural commodities and aligned with the NCSCOS in many of the core curricula. Partnering with Henderson County Farm Bureau, AITC can focus on local agriculture to provide real-world applications for Henderson County students. Since this fellowship focuses on apples, the three-week internship will include some dates into the school year with no more than three visits planned in the fall.
