THANK YOU to all who helped make Ag Expo 2026 a huge success!🤩🎊
Ag Expo was held on February 27th at St. Mary’s Catholic School in Chester IL. Kindergarten-5th grade students at St. Mary’s & St. John’s Lutheran School in Chester attended. Farm Bureau and local company volunteers led talks about different areas of the agriculture industry! Students rotated through different stations covering Dairy, Livestock, Pizza, Farm Safety, Crops, Wildlife and Soil! Chester High School FFA members led activities relating to each topic after our volunteers finished talking to students about it. Thank you St. Mary’s and St. John’s for the chance to educate your students about agriculture! Thank you to all of our volunteers for spending time sharing the industry we love with these students!🌱🐄🌽🐾🍕🥽🐓
