Global Fertilizer Day on October 13th
Each year we celebrate Global Fertilizer Day on October 13th, in recognition of the important role fertilizers play in feeding the world. Nutrients for Life is providing middle and high school classrooms across the nation with Fertilizer Fun Boxes. Each box, valued at $600, includes classroom sets of hands-on, standards-aligned soil science activities that highlight the importance and science of fertilizer use. After a record-breaking year last year, we would like to share these industry sponsored boxes with teachers that are new to Nutrients for Life.
Could you please share this information with your teacher network and have them sign up to receive a box? I have included a link to the teacher request form and a social media graphic for you to share.
Request Form Link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf8HLkeeW8l3VWlMR0_sAVDL2k9VdYl-M4jS-rtMwqpqYN52g/viewform…

Goshen Meadows Alpaca Farms
Goshen Meadows Alpaca Farm (GMF) in Sanger, Texas has a vision for opportunities to interact with FFA and 4H clubs in our local area with local farms as well as regionally and nationally.
These opportunities would include education and experience with animal husbandry, fiber processing, textile and product development, entrepreneurship, leadership and community relations. These could include farm tours, shearing observation, monthly herd health observations, running a farm store, event planning and possible fund-raising events at our farms and regional conferences.
