LANDENBERG, Pa. — Agriculture Secretary Russell Redding participated in Pennsylvania Ag Literacy Week from March 18-22 at Avon Grove Charter School in Chester County.
Redding, alongside other department officials, toured the school farm — funded through Pennsylvania Farm Bill to School Grants — and read “Anywhere Farm” by Phyllis Root to second-graders. They also lead hands-on activities designed to connect children with the science of food production.
Pennsylvania Ag Literacy Week is a project by the Pennsylvania Friends of Agriculture Foundation created with the goal of exposing children to agriculture careers.
