Our library was 1 of her MANY stops this year. A big “Thank You” to Kinsey for all her work in the community!

📚✏️ As the new school year gets closer, we want to give a huge shoutout to our amazing Adams County Ag in the Classroom Coordinator, Miss Kinsey Tiemann! 💚🌽🐄

Last school year, Kinsey:
🌟 Visited 207 classrooms
🌟 Reached 4,060 Kindergarten–5th grade students
🌟 Returned to each classroom 3–4 times, for a total of 730 classroom visits
🌟 Made an incredible 14,029 student touchpoints throughout the year!

Because of her passion and dedication, thousands of students across Adams County are learning where their food comes from and gaining a greater appreciation for agriculture. 🌾🚜

We are truly lucky to have Miss Tiemann representing agriculture and inspiring the next generation. Thank you for everything you do! 💙
