National Ag Week Activities

To help you celebrate National Agriculture Week, March 10-16, staff from the Nebraska Farm Bureau Foundation and Nebraska Farm Bureau, have compiled a resource kit for your county to make Ag Week planning, promotion, and celebration easy.

The kit includes a list of ideas counties can use in their communities to celebrate Ag Week. You can download:

Bookmarks with agriculture facts for your local schools or library
Placemats for use at your local restaurants
Coloring pages
Suggested activities
Newspaper ad, and
Social media posts

We recommend that you use a local printer in town to print any materials you need for Ag Week; however, the Foundation will provide Nebraska county Farm Bureaus 300 sheets total as requested, cost per additional sheet is $.14. Please fill in the form below or contact Jenna Sutterfield, NEFB Foundation Program Associate at jennas@nefb.org or call her at (402) 421-4747 before February 15.

Please contact your local newspaper to place the ad. If you want a bigger or smaller size ad please contact Oscar Diaz in the CSI Department at (402) 421-4448 or oscard@nefb.org by March 1. Prices will vary depending on ad size and newspaper.

As always, we appreciate hearing from you and receiving your Ag Week photos from any county events you promote.
