Looking for inspiration? Here are a few creative box requests that we received last year:
- Dairy producers sent boxes to agriculture educators in a nearby district, thanking them for their work and encouraging them to reach out if they ever want to tour or connect with a working dairy farm.
- Parents and neighbors sent boxes to their adult children or friends who are ag educators to help them start the school year off on a positive note.
- Educators paired up and sent boxes to each other as a fun back-to-school gesture.
- Businesses shared their appreciation for ag educators in their community and asked the Dairy Leaders of Tomorrow team to choose teachers in their county to receive boxes.
“Thank you so much for the box of goodies and sweet note! It means more than words can say and was such a kind surprise.” -Carissa, an agriculture teacher who received a box last year.
“Thank you! It was a great surprise for my friend. Thank you for thinking of ag educators everywhere!” -Nicole (who sent a box last year)
