National Ag Science Center

National Ag Science Center Ag education nonprofit dedicated to serving future ag leaders and workers!

We provide students with unique programs focused on science to: help them experience agriculture through the eyes of a scientist, learn about careers in agriculture and understand the importance of sustaining a vibrant agriculture industry in California. To accomplish this we have a 53-foot mobile science classroom which visits schools free of charge inviting junior high students to explore hands-on science at their schools.

Happy ! There are more than 7 billion people in the world — that’s over seven billion mouths to feed every day. Today, let's show our appreciation for not only local and national farmers who make this possible but to our communities and schools across the country that help young people consider career opportunities in agricultural industries.

Ag is essential now and for our future. 🌱
