Not all of our farm tours are for school kids. We sometimes get to host teachers who want to learn more about agriculture too. There is a program that the Cook County Farm Bureau offers called Summer Ag Institute where teachers take a week long class and get to tour and learn about local farming and food. This year Wagner Farm was one of the stops and I got to spend a couple of hours with the class talking dairy and truck farming. I'm not sure if the highlight was the hand milking demonstration or the ice cream we served afterwords.
