Calling all Penn State Teach Ag! Avengers! #PSUavengers

In a world full of vacant agriculture education classrooms, a team was assembled to represent one of the hardest working careers and majors known to mankind to spread the awareness of this problem. This unique team had to be diverse, knowledgeable, and willing to go to great lengths to communicate with the citizens of America how much agriculture education superheroes were needed. 

Their mission you may wonder? Over a span of one year, they will each complete 6 events either teaching or facilitating the Penn State Ag Ed Message to try and convince some of the best students in Pennsylvania to join the Agriculture Education team. Look out for this fantastic 5 when they come to your town!
