Working together to enhance the knowledge, understanding, and appreciation of agriculture in everyday life.
About
Brigden Fair offers this “free” program to Primary Grades 2-3 and Junior Grades 4-5-6 from schools in the Lambton County area. Students join us for a day program, which includes ‘hands on’ activities exploring topics on animals, crops and changing technology. The program has been developed to fit the science and social studies units of the current school curriculum while teaching how important agriculture is in our daily lives.
