Matching Grants Available Through Wisconsin Farm Bureau’s Ag in the Classroom Program

The Wisconsin Ag in the Classroom Program is accepting applications for matching grants, up to $500, that will be awarded to groups conducting activities that promote agricultural literacy in K-12 schools.

Projects that use funds toward an ongoing, sustainable education effort will receive preference over a one-time program. Applicants must have a matching donor for their project equal to the amount of the Ag in the Classroom grant. The application deadline is March 1.

Interested groups or schools can get an application on the Wisconsin Ag in the Classroom website at wisagclassroom.org, by clicking on the grant section. You may also contact Darlene Arneson, Ag in the Classroom Coordinator, at darneson@wfbf.com or 608.828.5644.
