Farming Is the Future.

And That Future Affects Every One of Us.

Every meal on your table begins with agriculture. And the future of our food supply depends on the next generation prepared to grow, produce, and innovate.

At the South Carolina Governor's School for Agriculture, a record 105 students are preparing to become that next generation.

Your year-end gift helps provide the hands-on experiences, equipment, and opportunities that prepare them for what's next.

Student Impact Story

One Opportunity Can Change Everything.

Will Cutshall struggled to find his place in a traditional classroom. But when he attended John de la Howe's Aggie Adventure Camp, hands-on STEM learning sparked a passion he hadn't discovered before.

Today, Will is a straight-A student, a peer leader, and the founder of the school's 3D-printing club. He's completed all four academic pathways and hopes to study engineering at Clemson University.

Imagine what the right opportunity could make possible for another student.

If I can help these students succeed, even a little, that thrills my soul... they are nation builders.
