If you didn’t get in on the full subscription for FARM Crates, you still have time to buy crates by the month for April and May.
Similar to other subscription boxes like Stitch Fix or HelloFresh, FARM Crates are delivered to K-5th grade classrooms across the state at the start of each month. They bring the normalcy and fun of field trips back into the classroom, whether students are meeting in person or online. Each crate includes a food or agriculture book, Agriculture in the Classroom lesson resources, a hands-on, grade-appropriate lesson and support materials, an online extension activity and a teacher gift.
Farm Crate Monthly Classroom Kits are available April and May for grades K-5. A $50 value, boxes are available to the public for $35/month and to county Farm Bureaus for $30 per box.
Order deadlines:
Have your P&E chair or volunteers work with your CAM to order through the Michigan Ag in the Classroom store subscription tab.
