This is your chance to visit the FACS Farm without leaving the classroom. Learn about barns with computers, what animals eat, how many eggs a chicken lays, safety measures and much more. Understand the connection agriculture has to Social Studies, Science, Mathematics, Language Arts and Health.

Have fun, put on your ‘thinking cap’ and discover what it takes to operate a Saskatchewan farm or ranch in the 21st century. Gain an appreciation of the commitment by producers to responsible animal care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition to being care givers, to some extent producers are also managers, scientists, bookkeepers, mechanics, truckers and computer operators.
