The University of Illinois Extension Office is taking things month by month. There will be no in person summer activities during the month of July and Christian and Montgomery Ag in the Classroom Coordinator Rebecca Livingston is getting ready for the fall despite all of the uncertainty. 

A positive that has come out of all of this, according to Livingston, is the ability to spend some time coming up with new lessons and spending some time writing grants.

Livingston has two separate plans. One if the schools are in session in the fall and one if they’re not. If school is in session in the fall and things are mostly normal, her first lesson will be a popular lesson on pumpkins. 

If Livingston isn’t allowed in the classrooms then she will create Ag bags for kids to take home to complete the lesson.
