The American Farm Bureau Foundation for Agriculture has released a new game for teachers, families, farmers and ranchers working with preschool and early elementary age students.

“Farm to Cart” is designed to show the connection between food in the grocery store and products grown and raised on the farm.

Through the game, young learners discover how to describe the general process for the production of an agricultural product and how farmers use land to grow crops. Players will race to be the first player to harvest items from the farm and place them in their grocery carts. To win, a player must have three items that grow on trees, three animal products from the land and three items from the soil.

This game is offered as a free, PDF download on www.agfoundation.org. Materials needed to play include scissors, glue or tape, 1 die from another game.
