EDUCATING OUR FRIENDS & NEIGHBORS ABOUT AGRICULTURE
From the Ground Up educates our friends and neighbors in the Brazos Valley about agriculture and its impact on their everyday lives. We talk with our members about their agricultural operations, academics about technological advancements and outreach, legislators about issues that impact rural life, and a host of other people who have insight to share about our nation's food and fiber. You can watch the weekly television segment at approximately 6:15 a.m. on Thursdays or during the Saturday 6 o'clock evening news on KBTX-TV 3, Bryan-College Station's CBS affiliate.
PRODUCERS Saturday Class is a popular one-hour information class held for 12 weeks each spring and fall. Held in our Ag Center, these classes are free and open to the public and cover a variety of topics for both agricultural producers and home landscapers/gardeners. They are led by experts in the field, so come ready to learn all you wanted to know about agriculture and the home landscape and then some. We'll see you in Class!
