Agriculture 11 Contact Resource Page
"Agriculture is not crop production as popular belief holds- it's the production of food and fibre from the world's land and waters. Without agriculture it is not possible to have a city, stock markets, banks, university, church, or army. Agriculture is the foundation of civilization and any stable economy."

This page is designed for teachers of Agriculture and Agrifoods 11 in Nova Scotia. I have added contacts and websites so teachers will be able to access information, websites, and companies within the agricultural industry of Nova Scotia. It is my hope that this site will give teachers a one stop site to access information pertaining to class topics, field trips, and the industry as a whole. Before teaching I grew up and worked my whole life on my family dairy farm in New Brunswick (see above photo). I hope my practical knowlege of farming will be able to help anyone who needs information or help...if I can't answer your question maybe I can get you in contact with someone who can. Here are some contacts to obtain more information for your classroom Please contact me if you have any questions: [email protected]
****This page is just a rough start to what I hope to compile. These websites are rather chaotically listed. As time passes, I hope to add more contacts and categorize them. Keep checking back.
