In Utah for the week. Things I quickly remembered:
1)while I donโt subscribe to โbUt iT iS a dRy hEaTโ because hot is hot to me, it does make mid-90s feel much cooler
2) no humidity=more static! Ironing my dress this morning was electric ๐ฅ
๐กHappy Ag Literacy Week!๐ก
We like this definition from @AgFoundation : Understanding how the agricultural industry worksโnot just where food comes from, but who grows it, agriculture's effect on the economy, environment, technology, lifestyle and its relationship to livestock.
We are happy to announce that Krista Bond, teacher at Pocosin Innovative Charter in Washington County is a 2024 National Excellence in Teaching about Agriculture Award winner!
