Aggie Days: Hands-On Ag Education for All

0:00Aggie Days is kicking off right now at the Neutrion Western Events Center through Sunday, giving students and families a hands-on dive into agriculture. The first three days, April 15th to 17th, are locked in for around 12,000 pre-registered students exploring interactive exhibits. On grain, livestock, and how food gets from farm to table. Meanwhile, lunch breaks feature novice rodeo competitions to keep things exciting, blending education with that stampede energy. From the weekend, doors swing open to the public from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., both days so anyone can join the fun. Kids are loving it. One first grader called it Way Better Than School, dreaming of raising pigs, horses, and bunnies on his own farm. Organizers like Brian Gross from the Agriculture Education Subcommittee stress making learning stick through play, especially for city folks, far from rural roots. Gross points out Aggie Days fills a real gap, connecting people to Canada's safe foods supply in a way that's engaging and unfiltered.
