ABOUT GROUNDED IN AG
GROUNDED IN AG CAMPAIGN
As someone rooted in agriculture, you understand how important it is that future generations know where their food comes from—and who grows it. Yet, with each passing year, more kids grow up without a connection to the farm.
Thanks to supporters like you, the Champaign County Farm Bureau Foundation’s Ag in the Classroom program reaches over 3,000 students every month. For many of these children, it’s their first real experience with agriculture. Through creative, hands-on lessons, they’re not just learning facts—they’re gaining a lasting appreciation for farmers and the food system.
Because of you, we don’t just teach. We build trust in agriculture, spark curiosity, and plant seeds that grow into future advocates, consumers, and even ag professionals.
But to keep this momentum going, we need your help. That's what the Grounded in Ag Campaign is all about!
Would you consider making a gift to ensure more students experience agriculture in a meaningful way? Your support brings agriculture to life—in classrooms, assemblies, field trips, and beyond.
Thank you for being a vital part of this mission. With your help, we can inspire the next generation to be informed, engaged, and passionate about agriculture.
