More than 800 Nevada County 2nd and 3rd graders will attend Farm Day 2024 on September 18th, at the Nevada County Fairgrounds.

​As you probably already know, Farm Day isn’t just about​ animals, fruits, & vegetables. It’s about how important water is to all facets of agriculture. How trees become lumber and paper products, spinning fibers from animal wool makes clothes, and how bats help farmers with their crops. It’s about the importance of insects and pollination, saving seeds, worms, and soil and so much more!

NCRCD partners and volunteers from all over Nevada County gather for one day to hold a fun packed Farm Day at the Fairgrounds for all Nevada County 2nd and 3rd grade classrooms. Children have the opportunity to particate in all aspects of agriculture.

Nevada County Ag In The Classroom partners include NCRCD, Nevada County Farm Bureau, Placer Nevada Cattlewomen,  USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service, Nevada County Agricultural Commissioner, California Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom, Sierra Foothills Research and Extension Center, and Sierra Harvest. There are also many local volunteers from our community that have generously donated thier valuable time, and we are grateful.

We hope you make time to allow us to share our unique perspective on agriculture with your children at Farm Day. It’s a wonderful place for little eyes, hands, and minds!
