Crops in the Classroom

Crops in the Classroom

Come explore—and taste—Utah’s crops! Utah Agriculture in the Classroom is highlighting specialty crops grown in Utah including tart cherries, peaches, pistachios, honey, and much more. Crops in the Classroom provides teachers with standards-based curriculum linked to health and nutrition, and the opportunity to introduce students to crops grown locally in Utah.
This 20-minute module is designed for teachers in Utah.* Teachers who complete the module below will receive a Crops in a Box resource kit worth $150. Supplies are limited. Modules must be complete in order to receive a Crops in a Box resource kit.

*If you have already attended (or plan to attend) a Crops in the Classroom workshop, you do not need to complete this module.
This project was funded by the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food (UDAF) Specialty Crop Block Grant and Utah State University Extension.

Thank you to the following producers of Utah specialty crops highlighted in the Crops in a Box resource kit:
