The Summer Ag Institute (SAI) is a three day, hands on learning experience for teachers and educational staff. We partner with Franklin and Hamilton County Farm Bureaus to offer fun tours of local farms and ag businesses for teachers and provide teachers with lesson information and resources from Illinois Ag in the Classroom. The $25 registration fee secures your spot and covers all meals, materials, and a t-shirt. The SAI offers 22.5 hours of approved professional development.
