SCHOOL Presentations and Resources
We proudly offer FREE presentations and resources for teachers and students in BC.
Bridging the gap between the farm and the dinner table is at the heart of what we do. We offer your students a firsthand look at how chicken is raised right, here in British Columbia, highlighting the dedicated local farmers who produce our food.
Meet Our Presenter
Farmer Amanda
Our presenter, Farmer Amanda, doesn't just talk about farming—she lives it! Raising chickens on her own farm in Chilliwack, she brings authentic stories and expertise to every session. Her passion for local food production helps students understand the work that goes into the food they eat every day.
How it works
All our Presentations and Resources are 100% free to schools year-round.
To reach the most schools, we require the following from schools:
-
We book by the school, not by the class. This means that each booking must involve multiple classes and extend throughout the school day.
-
The Mini Barn can host 1-3 classes per 20-30 minute presentation.
-
All other presentations visit 1 class per block. (minimum 3 classes per booking)
-
If your school does not yet meet these requirements, we recommend waiting to book a date once more teachers sign up for a presentation.
-
-
We ask schools to coordinate internally when choosing a presentation and creating the presentation schedule.
-
Hybrid Presentation days are available to schools who have teachers interested in different presentations (see table below).
-
-
Once a date is requested, it is not guaranteed until we finalize the details via email communications with our team.

Availability varies by region. If you're unsure, filter the Calendar to see when presentations are available in your region
