The 48th District Agricultural Association is a state entity within the Division of Fairs and Expositions, which is part of the California Department of Food and Agriculture.
We work with teachers throughout the year to make it easier for them to teach agriculture in their classrooms.  Teachers are invited to our offices to learn about the program and how it can benefit them and their students.  Upon request,  we can do in-services at schools or at district meetings.

We offer project kits which stress hands-on activities such as vermiculture,  hatching chicks or trout, gardening and hydroponics.  We maintain a library of reference books, children's books and videos which may be borrowed.  All of our materials are provided free of charge, in exchange for exhibits, which demonstrate what students have learned and are the components of our fair.

Bi-Monthly, we publish a newsletter to advise teachers about upcoming events and to provide information on a variety of agriculture-related topics.
