Introducing There's A Farmer in My Classroom

Through There’s A Farmer in My Classroom, students explore the magic of agriculture, meeting farmers (and cows), touring farms, and discovering where their food really comes from. It’s not just fun, it’s inspiring the next generation to connect with agriculture and its endless possibilities!

Here's what your students can explore with there's a farmer in my classroom:

Farm in Focus: Virtual Farm Tours

Agriculture is incredibly diverse, with so many fascinating things to see, do, and learn! Whether your students come from farm families or are brand new to agriculture, our Virtual Farm Tours offer an exciting window into the world of food, farming, and the people behind it all.


Each tour highlights a different part of agriculture, from row crops to livestock to specialty farms, giving students a chance to explore real farms without ever leaving the classroom.


To deepen the learning, every tour comes with grade-level specific curriculum aligned to classroom standards, making it easy for teachers to connect farm experiences to meaningful lessons.

Bring This to My Classroom

There's A Cow in My Classroom

Want your students to experience what it’s really like to raise farm animals? Sign up for There’s A Cow in My Classroom!


This special spotlight unit invites students to step into the boots of a beef farmer and experience the care, commitment, and science behind raising cattle. Through virtual farm visits, interactive lessons, and real connections with farmers, students learn how cows are raised to produce high-quality beef and why it matters. Did we mention you will have your own cow to follow for the year?! It’s a meaningful way to spark curiosity, build empathy for animal care, and bring agriculture to life in your classroom.
