Porter County Soil & Water Conservation Presentation at Brummitt

Presentation-at-BRThe Porter County Soil & Water Conservation District presented the program, "Sow, Grow and Know," to second graders at Brummitt Elementary School recently. The program involves students in hands-on experiments and activities to learn more about farming in Porter County.

Students also had an opportunity to ask a "real" farmer questions. Pictured is local farmer Keith Gustafson assisting students from Carolyn Harden's classroom, clockwise from left, Jessica Hopkins, Connor Engels, Oliver Morgan and Ryan Higgins during an experiment. All Brummitt second grade students participated in this activity designed to connect with several Indiana Academic Standards.
