CTE HOSTS CLARE COUNTY FARM BUREAU PROJECT RED EVENT- On Thursday, October 5th, the Clare-Gladwin RESD Career and Technical Education (CTE) hosted the Clare County Farm Bureau's Project RED (Rural Education Day) at the Magnus Center Campus. This event welcomed local fifth graders from Farwell, Harrison, and Clare Schools, offering them insight into the importance of agriculture and how it impacts our daily lives.
The students had the opportunity to explore various fun and educational stations, where they interacted with experienced professionals from the district forestry service, MSU Extension, FFA members / Agricultural Science students, and local producers. Some stations included planting and harvesting crops, raising livestock, honeybee production, maple syrup collecting, farm safety, and more!
Project Red is made possible through the collaborative efforts of the Farm Bureau, area school districts, and the generous support of local agricultural organizations and businesses.
