Agricenter Ag Day Celebration

Typically, Agricenter educates 10,000 students each year about the importance of where their food and fiber come from.  In 2022, we were able to get back to our Agricenter Ag Day Celebration in person. We are looking forward to another great opportunity in 2023 to have our Agricenter Ag Day Celebration and award our winners for the Art Contest. 

The theme for 2023 is “Agriculture as Part of Your Life” This is an opportunity for students to learn about Agriculture as a leading industry and how it impacts our lives. Students can think about “What role does agriculture play in our everyday lives.” This year the Art Contest is open to Shelby, Tipton, Fayette County in Tennessee and Desoto County in Mississippi. Art entries are due to Agricenter International by Friday, March 10, 2023. There are cash prizes for both winning students and TEACHERS of winning students.
