Schroeder Law Offices Educates Youth at 2018 Oregon Ag Fest!
This past weekend, thousands of families and agriculture enthusiasts attended Ag Fest at the State Fairgrounds in Salem, Oregon. The April 28-29, 2018 event marked the annual fest’s 31st anniversary.
The event features local organizations and locally grown products to teach children (and by proxy some adults) about Oregon agriculture. Kids learn where their food, fiber, and flora come from by taking part in educational activities offered by organizations at booths scattered throughout the indoor buildings, and can interact with animals in the barn! Kids get to take home a variety of free plants and crafts to continue the learning process.
Schroeder Law Offices’ members have participated in the event for years by working the booths for various organizations. This year Tara Jackson helped kids plant radishes and bean starts for home gardens at the Oregon Women for Agriculture booth and quizzed kids on water-related trivia at the Oregon Ground Water Association booth.
Mark your calendar now for next year’s Ag Fest. You do not want to miss this wonderful, fun, and low cost event. For more details click here.
