RURAL AND FARM SAFETY ESCAPE MAIL

We are inviting students to use their Earth-based knowledge and apply it to their mission of safely farming on Mars.

​

Ag for Life’s Rural and Farm Safety escape mail game utilizes the logic of an escape room - providing an interactive, playful way to learn about safety, while challenging players to understand, identify and mitigate risks in order to keep themselves and their crew safe!

THE STORY OF FOOD

Did you know that for a legume to be considered a pulse, it must be dried?

This means fresh peas and beans are not pulses, but dry peas and beans are!

​

For as long as humans have been farming, they’ve been growing and eating pulses. Pulses have been an

important food in cultures across the

globe for thousands of years, and

they’re still just as important today!

 Learn all about pulses in this month's Story of Food.
