Staff & Board

I love knowing that AITC-M’s school programs and resources help contribute to a more informed society where consumers and voters can make smart decisions about the food they eat, and the role that agriculture plays in feeding the world.

I love being part of an organization dedicated to ensuring Manitoban students learn the importance of agriculture in their daily lives, our economy and our environment.

I enjoy being able to combine my enthusiasm for inquiry-based learning and agriculture to create and deliver accurate, balanced and current hands-on programs and resources for MB educators and students.

As someone who grew up cooking and loving food, I'm thrilled to help educate kids about where their food comes from and share the amazing stories that Manitoba agriculture has to offer.

I want to educate students on the importance of agriculture and how it affects our everyday lives. This industry provides so many opportunities, I hope all students can see themselves pursuing a career in agriculture.

I feel privileged to be a part of AITC-M and the amazing experience of watching the eyes of students light up when they learn something new about agriculture, the importance of food, and where their food comes from.

I grew up on a farm and experienced firsthand where food comes from. I want more students to have that opportunity so they can make informed decisions and think critically about what they hear about food and farming.

I am so proud to work for an organization that brings industry experience and passion to students in Manitoba. Agriculture is a diverse field that offers success to everyone and AITC-M plays a critical role in shining a light on all it has to offer.

I am extremely passionate about my community and our incredible agriculture industry. I am also deeply committed to education. Combining these two at AITC-M is a powerful driver for my ongoing commitment to our province and our students.

Once a city girl, now a farmer – I am passionate about agriculture. Through AITC-M programs, I look forward to sharing positive information about food production with children, parents and educators!

Farm raised. Farm fed. Farm fueled. AITC-M allows me to share my passion for ag!

AITC-M does amazing work by creating synergy between the agricultural community and educators. Having a better understanding of agriculture is important for everyone.

I'm proud to serve on the Agriculture in the Classroom-Manitoba Board of Directors because I believe in our vision. Together, we are developing a deeper appreciation of the importance of agriculture to our province's social and economic wellbeing.

Since today’s students are our future leaders, decision-makers and voters, I feel it is important that they have an understanding and appreciation of where their food comes from and how vital agriculture is to our communities. AITC-M works hard to provide opportunities for teachers and students to learn about agriculture, and I am very proud to be a part of it.

Canadians enjoy the safest, healthiest food in the world, but they don't realize that fact. AITC-M can facilitate this transfer of knowledge.

I believe it’s critically important for students to have the seeds of knowledge of agriculture planted in classrooms across the province. I’m proud of my farm and agriculture background and support the amazing work done by AITC-M.

I believe that through education, our youth will come to better understand where our food comes from, both locally and globally, and how they may play a role in keeping our food supply sustainable for future generations. I am proud to be a part of AITC-M as they work to share this message.

I am passionate about Canadian agriculture and the people who work in this industry!  AITC-M shares that passion and the positive story of farmers and how they are committed to growing safe food for society. If you believe in Canadian agriculture and the people who make it happen, you simply must promote and encourage the efforts of AITC-M.

I grew up in the city, but the family vegetable farm was a short bike ride away. Since then, I've watched the distance grow between Manitobans and food production. Getting involved with AITC-M is the best way I know to build awareness about the importance of agriculture for the next generation.

I love being a livestock producer, and I love sharing my farm journey with kids – it’s a great way to learn where their food comes from! Kids see how much passion and care goes into farming when I bring cattle and other animals to events.

I love food, science and am excited to help students learn how to eat healthy food.

I have a deep respect for agriculture, our Industry and lifestyle from working within the Ag Industry but also by participating on our family farm. Food, eating and nourishment is something we all unanimously have a connection to, but how that food is grown is a big unknown for many.
