Progressive Agriculture Safety Days

Progressive Agriculture Foundation

In 2017, close to 400 Progressive Agriculture Safety Days were held in communities across the U.S., Canada and American Samoa. These Safety Days taught more than 100,000 children and adults how to stay safe on farms, ranches and in rural communities through a variety of hands-on activities and demonstrations.

The 2017 Progressive Agriculture Safety Day program was made possible by the monetary and in-kind donations of numerous corporations, foundations, organizations and individuals. The total value of their 2017 cash and in-kind contributions has exceeded $2 million.
