| COOKEVILLE,
Tenn. (April 26, 2007) — Farm Bureau’s Bryan Street gives a
presentation about the evolution of crop cultivation to a group of first
graders from Monterey’s Uffelman Elementary School and their families
in the photo above. State Farm recently teamed up with Tennessee Tech University
to host the annual Ag in the Classroom event at Hyder-Burks Agriculture
Pavilion. The event introduces first graders to all aspects of agriculture,
and more than 1,000 students representing all Putnam County schools attended.
