Each September, Marquette and Alger Conservation Districts host a day at the Michigan State University Extension Farm in Chatham, Michigan. This day is geared towards 5th grade students, who come from schools all over the two-county area. We've had all the way from Grand Marais to Powell Township, and schools as far south as Wells Township!
The day at the farm consists of over 25 professional presenters getting students engaged in conservation practices, healthy food choices, agriculture activities, as well as wildlife management and watershed health. These are just a few topics, as they change yearly!
