Students to Experience Agriculture at Ag in the Bag
Program Focuses on Agriculture in Everyday Life
A very limited amount of space remains for
the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce’s Ag in
the Bag program, which will be Tuesday, Oct.
26, Wednesday, Oct. 27 and Thursday, Oct. 28
at the Livestock Arena at Texas Tech University. Ag in the Bag is an educational experience
designed to expose elementary level students
to various aspects of the agricultural industry.
Sessions begin at 9:30 a.m., and participants will visit stations, featuring peanuts,
corn, beef, sheep and goats, water conservation, cotton, food science, and the Mobile
Dairy Classroom. Students will visit each station for about 15-20 minutes where presenters
will educate students about how important
the components of agriculture are to our
everyday lives and where our food and fiber
originate. Lunch will be served each day during the program, and students will learn how
and be shown how agriculture is involved in
everything they eat for lunch.
Ag in the Bag is planned and hosted by the
Lubbock Chamber of Commerce Agriculture
Committee and sponsored by numerous
partnering entities across the South Plains,
including the College of Agricultural Sciences
and Natural Resources at Texas Tech and Texas
AgriLife Extension. Because of these sponsors
and others, Ag in the Bag is able to be offered
to the schools at no cost.
