The Delaware Farm Bureau's mission is to build awareness, understanding, and positive public perception about Delaware’s farm operations and fresh local food. We accomplish this through our Mobile Ag Lab, which educates children and adults on the importance of farming, healthy eating, and agriculture as a way of life.
We as the Delaware Farm Bureau Foundation are working to revamp our agriculture curriculum and create a new Immersion Lab. This new initiative is the priority of the Delaware Farm Bureau Foundations in hopes of the lab, visiting schools and summer camps throughout Delaware as well as having the Immersion Lab available for agricultural events. Children and adults alike can be transported into a world of agricultural knowledge, through interactive activities, about where their food comes from, how it’s made, and what different careers are available in the field of agriculture.
Our goal is to educate the public on Delaware's #1 industry, Agriculture, and to demonstrate how agriculture is connected to everyday things such as clothing, school supplies, and more! Please help us in achieving this goal to inspire the next generation of agricultural leaders.
About Delaware Farm Bureau Foundation
Mission: Our Mission: To build awareness, understanding, and positive public perception about Delaware’s farm operations and fresh local food.
The Delaware Farm Bureau Foundation was incorporated in March 2013 as a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization. Headquartered in Camden, Delaware. The Delaware Farm Bureau Foundation was created to build awareness, understanding and positive public perception about Delaware’s farm operations, promote fresh local food and sponsor the Ag Education Mobile Classroom.
The Delaware Department of Agriculture generously donated the 24′ trailer, which we refer to as the Mobile Ag Lab. This became the Delaware Farm Bureau Foundation’s “mobile classroom,” visiting schools and summer camps throughout Delaware. Children are taught, through an interactive lesson, about where their food comes from, how it’s made, and what different careers are available in the field of agriculture.
Our goal is to educate the public on Delaware's #1 industry, Agriculture, and to demonstrate how agriculture is connected to everyday things such as clothing, school supplies and more!
