Banners
Take students into the corn field, dairy parlor, or farmer’s market with life-sized banners and supporting resources. Nebraska Farm Bureau County leaders can check out to use one or all banners at their event.
The Concept
- Learners are drawn to the life-size banners.
- They grab a Pick-Up Card near the banner that fits their knowledge level.
- Each number on the Pick-Up Card corresponds to a number on the banner. The color corresponds to the level!
- Learners read the challenge on their Pick-Up Card and look for the corresponding number on the banner.
- Learners solve the challenge and write their answer on the Pick-Up Card.
- Volunteer discusses answers with learner.

Two Truths & A Lie
This kit is useful and engaging in a booth setting to engage and cultivate conversations about agriculture in Nebraska with adult learners. Each of the seven Nebraska Farm Bureau Promotion & Education Committee members have a kit that can be borrowed in their region. Contact the Nebraska Farm Bureau Foundation to be connected to a P&E member at (402) 421-4747.
The Concept
- This is an incredibly easy game to play. The statements are about agriculture. Two of the statements are the truth and one of them is a lie. The lie can be outrageous, wacky, or sound like a truth, making it hard to guess which statement is a lie.
- The volunteer reads the three statements. After they have finished reading each statement the learner can move the cards to “a truth” or “a lie” using the Velcro on the back of the statement.
