Unfortuatley due to lack of ticket sales we have had to cancel the Donkey Basketball event previous scheduled for this Saturday, March 7.

During the month of February, CFE's second grader students enjoyed a unique and hands-on Agriculture in the Classroom experience that blended creativity, kindness, and learning! Students explored how vegetables grow and are used in ways other than eating by creating veggie valentines using okra and beets. These colorful creations were then shared as a small act of kindness, designed to bring a smile and spread cheer to someone else.
It was a fun and meaningful way for students to connect agriculture, art, and compassion, all while learning that even vegetables can help make someone’s day a little brighter.
