From Iowa’s turkey farms to the nation’s cranberry bogs, students at the North Fayette Valley after-school program explored the journey of their Thanksgiving meal — from the farm to their plate! 🦃🌽 They discovered how agriculture connects every part of the holiday we all love to gather around. 🍂

🚜💡 Fueling the Future!

Today, the Fayette County Ag in the Classroom program partnered with Iowa Corn to bring the Biofuels Mobile Education Center to Oelwein Middle School! 🙌

Students got hands-on with the world of biofuels—learning what they are, how they’re made, and why they matter. They also connected it to what they’re already learning in the classroom, like chemical reactions, photosynthesis, and renewable energy. 🌱⚗️

It’s especially exciting to make these local connections, with POET Biorefining in Fairbank producing ethanol right here in Fayette County! Experiences like this help students see how agriculture, science, and technology work hand-in-hand to power our communities and fuel the future. 🔋🌽

A huge thank you to Mike with the Biofuels Mobile Education Center and Iowa Corn for making this awesome learning opportunity possible! 💚

Tucking the Farm In for Winter 🌾

This month, students are learning that farming doesn’t stop when the weather turns cold! Through the book Sleep Tight Farm, they discovered how farmers work hard all year long — especially right now — to prepare for winter. ❄️

Students talked about how farm families harvest the last of their crops, stack hay, store feed, and care for animals and equipment before the snow flies. Each student even decorated their own pillowcase to take home as a reminder that even while we sleep, farmers are still working to provide for all of us. 💚

Lessons like this help students see the heart, dedication, and year-round effort that goes into agriculture — and why every season on the farm matters. 🚜🌾

🌽 Learning from the Corn Field to the Classroom!

This week, upper elementary students in Fayette County became plant experts as they identified and took apart a corn plant to explore its many parts! Each group studied one piece — roots, silk, leaves, tassel, stalk, husk, or ear — and created a poster to teach their classmates about the important job it plays in helping corn grow. 🌱📚

By piecing their knowledge together, students discovered how every part works as a team and why corn is such an essential crop for Iowa farmers. 🚜💛

Hands-on learning like this helps our students connect what’s growing in the classroom to what’s growing in the fields all around them!

🌾 Happy National Farmers Day! 🌾

Today we pause to honor the backbone of rural America — our farmers.

From sunrise to sunset, they nourish our communities, steward the land, and drive our local economy. Let’s take a moment today to thank a farmer, support local agriculture, and recognize that every meal we enjoy stems from their dedication.

Growing Curiosity Across Fayette County! ✨🌱

This month, elementary students all over Fayette County are turning into little scientists! They’re learning how seeds sprout and grow by creating their own seed germination necklaces — tiny greenhouses they can wear. 💧☀️🌱

Each student will take their seeds home to hang up in their “house” and watch the magic of germination unfold over the next several days. It’s hands-on learning, a little bit of science, and a whole lot of fun!

We’re so excited to see these young learners explore agriculture and plant science throughout October! 🌟
