Bushels for Books is an exciting new program offered by the Young Farmers and Ranchers in cooperation with the Oklahoma Farming and Ranching Foundation. As we kick off our back-to-school season, it brings us all back to the focus of getting agriculture into classrooms across the state of Oklahoma.
With every generation becoming further removed from the farm, it is imperative that we work together to make sure schools have accurate agricultural books in front of their students. By donating a few bushels of your harvest to this program, we are able to provide books to the students who will one day be our consumers. Help us today by donating bushels from your fall harvest through your local co-op or by sending your personal donation to the Oklahoma Farming and Ranching Foundation with “Bushels for Books” in the memo.
To donate a product from your harvest, cut out the donation cards and take them to your local co-op when you deliver your grain. Every donation is tax deductible and helps us reach our goal of more agriculture books in our schools.
You can download the cards from the Oklahoma Farming and Ranching Foundation website.
