LENDING A HAND
Neil Fearn, Edwards County Farm Bureau vice president, helps a student in Gina Salinas' second grade class at Portage Park School in Chicago complete his "Field to Table" activity. The Edwards County Board of Directors had adopted Salinas' class as part of the Adopt a Classroom program, and three board members and their spouses visited with the students in early December. Miss Salinas gave the board members the entire day with her students. During the day, students heard about livestock and grain farming, made pumpkin pie in a plastic bag, discovered the process that corn takes "From Field to Table," and played food bingo.
