Elk-Lick FFA Celebrates Ag Literacy Week!
Last week, Elk-Lick FFA members shared their love of agriculture with our youngest learners during Ag Literacy Week (March 17-21, 2025)!
FFA members visited Pre-K through 2nd grade classrooms to read Jackie’s Garden and lead a hands-on composting activity. Lower elementary students also got their hands dirty planting zinnia seeds to brighten up our school garden!
On Thursday, the chapter invited the Somerset County Master Garnders to present on Mr.Yuk to 1st grade as March 16-22, 2025 is also Poison Prevention Week.
On Friday, they brought back a fan-favorite event—the Elementary Petting Zoo! After a three-year hiatus, students got to meet and learn about a variety of farm animals up close.
We also unveiled two new compost bins for our school as part of our National FFA Living to Serve Community "Free-to-Take" Garden Project. These bins will help turn food scraps into rich soil for our garden, teaching sustainability in action!
A huge thank you to our members for making this week so special. We love growing the next generation of AG leaders! #ElkLickFFA #AgLiteracyWeek #LivingToServe #GrowingWithOurCommunity @PennStateMasterGardenersofSomersetCounty @PAFFAFoundation
