A special message from Isabella Chism, chairman of the Women’s Leadership Committee: “Educating students about the importance of agriculture and how it impacts each and every one of us, every single day, has been the mission of INFB since its inception in 1919. It’s why the Agriculture in the Classroom program was created nearly 40 years ago. We are excited to bring the AITC summer workshop back to Indiana Farm Bureau headquarters in celebration of our 100th year serving Indiana farmers. You won’t want to miss it.”
*Tours subject to change. Participants will travel to and from their tour site by bus.
