The Annual Day on the Farm for Franklin County third graders, will be held today at Sylvester Farms, west of Ottawa. Hundreds of third graders will flock to the farm to see what it’s like in the several areas of farming and ranching, with hands-on activities. Frontier Extension Agent, Jessica Flory, says it’s collaboration of many groups:
There will be stations involving soil conservation, local 4-H chapters, Extension Office Activities, wildlife displays, dairy, sheep, chickens, meat production and much more. The Day on the Farm runs from 9:00 this morning until 2:00 this afternoon.
