Teacher Programs


Teachers can expect workshops to focus on facilitating students' learning in active, learner-centered, community-focused classrooms. Participants select strategies, programs, and approaches that meet the individual needs of their students. These activities allow teachers to create classroom environments where students surpass minimum standards and become enthusiastic partners in their own learning.

Harvest Time: Reaping Farmers' Stories 


In order to protect and record Wisconsin’s rich agricultural history, it is important to listen to the stories of farmers who have worked the land for several decades. These farmers have tales of woe, feast, famine, triumph, adversity, and friendship that must be documented to help preserve that heritage. It’s also important to visualize how the craft of farming has changed over time, along with how it remains somewhat the same.

Harvest Time connects writers, visual artists, and musicians with elderly farmers. Farmers tell their stories  while artists record the tales using various forms of media. As a farmer talks about his or her life  participants create a rendering of the story either through writing, visual art, or music. The work created from each of the sessions will be published in newsletters of special interest or taken for publication elsewhere, to allow these farmers’ rich histories and memories to be shared and recorded for future generations.
