Eleven Oklahoma teachers receive accurate agriculture books through OKFB’s Bushels for Books leven Oklahoma educators were selected to receive a basket of accurate agriculture books as part of Oklahoma Farm Bureau’s Bushels for Books program. A collaboration between the OKFB Foundation for Agriculture and the OKFB Women’s Leadership Committee, Bushels for Books is designed to spread agriculture literacy to children around the state through providing a selection of books that accurately portray the agriculture industry. “As people become further removed from production agriculture, it is important for children to learn where their food comes from,” said Mignon
Bolay, WLC chair. “We hope these books will provide a fun way for them to learn more about agriculture.” Teachers who received bushel baskets are: •
Sarah Singhisen, Woodward
•
Angela Espinosa, Cheyenne
•
Michelle Bugg, Crescent
•
Jenna Bulling, Mulhall-Orlando
•
Traci Dragg, Thackerville
•
Tommie James, Bryan County OSU Extension
•
Ashley Collier, Oklahoma Union
•
Madison Allen, Hall-Halsell
•
Tammy Will, Morrison
•
Matina Hunnell, Evergreen Academy
•
Megan Polly, All Saints Catholic School
The program is open to Pre-K through eighth-grade teachers, librarians and agriculture extension educators in Oklahoma. “We are proud to support Oklahoma educators and students through the Bushels for Books program every year,” said OKFB Foundation for Agriculture President Kerry Givens. “We appreciate these teachers prioritizing agriculture education in their classrooms.”
