You can start reading now!!

Tennessee agricultural industry leaders have established November 14-20 as Tennessee Ag Literacy Week. Tennessee Ag Literacy Week focuses on connecting volunteers from the agricultural community to local classrooms to increase student knowledge about agriculture. It is an opportunity for Tennessee youth and agents to be the face of agriculture in classrooms across the state. 

A $50 gift card will be awarded to the top 4-H youth and adult readers. The Ag Literacy Committee will also provide awards to the top readers. Even though Ag Literacy is only designated for one week, all books read from November 1- November 30 will count towards 4-H and Ag Literacy sponsored awards. If you have any questions let me know. Start reading and sharing your love of agriculture!
