In celebration of National Ag Day and National Ag Week we are highlighting agricultural advocacy with Sue Knott from Minnesota Agricultural In the Classroom. Sue will share her thoughts on advocacy and how each has a role to play in ag advocacy. More about our presenter: Sue Knott's agriculture roots were established on her family's farm in southwestern Minnesota. Experiences in 4-H, FFA and helping raise crops and livestock, inspired her to earn a degree in agricultural education from the University of Minnesota. She taught high school agriculture classes for nine years before joining the Minnesota Agriculture in the Classroom team as an Education Specialist. She has served in this role for nine years and enjoys providing resources and professional development that inspires educators to utilize agricultural content to enhance their curricula.
