CFF "Fertilizer Bags" Are Educational and Free!
These 12" x 15" plastic bags developed by the California Fertilizer Foundation look like fertilizer bags when filled with goodies gathered at ag days or special ag-related events. The bag itself is an educational tool teaching readers about what the three numbers on a fertilizer label mean. Request should be sent via e-mail to Pam Emery, pame@healthyplants.org . Include the date and title of the event, contact name and phone number, quantity, as well as a UPS shipping address, and a description of how these bags will be used. Quantities are limited and will only be provided to programs that educate youth about agriculture. Click here to see a bag sample.
