Crop Connectors: Growing Carrots in Ohio

This multimedia kit was developed based on an Our Ohio TV segment. The kit includes a kid-friendly video in DVD format and follows the life cycle of carrots — from farm to Campbell Soup Company. Additional kit components are a teacher’s guide, carrot seeds and evaluation form to return. The kit is designed to match academic content standards in science and social studies primarily for fourth grade while introducing students to the economics and science of Ohio agriculture.

Growing Carrots in Ohio costs $20 and can be ordered from county Farm Bureaus. It also is available for purchase through Ohio State University's Curriculum Materials Service; price may vary. Contact Judy Roush at 614-246-8243 or jroush@ofbf.org for more information.
