Getting to Know AgScape

In this episode you will have to chance to hear more about AgScape and the work they do to support family studies educators in the classroom. As the voice of agriculture in the Ontario classroom, AgScape provides factual, balanced, curriculum-linked food literacy programs and resources to Ontario's educators and students.  During this podcast we interview Cassi Brunsveld.

Cassie is a Program and Resource Assistant.   She oversees the Teacher Ambassador Program (Grade 4-12), thinkAG events and many other aspects of AgScape programming offered to Ontario teachers and students. Cassi is no stranger to the agriculture industry, being born and raised on a pig and cash crop farm in south-western Ontario. She is an Ontario Certified Teacher with degrees from Griffith University (Australia) and Windsor University and a diploma from St. Clair College. Currently, Cassi resides in the Cambridge region with her husband and son where they have a dairy farm with 155+ milking cows. Outside of work, Cassi is the coordinator for the Ridgetown Progressive Agriculture Farm Safety Day, enjoys playing baseball and travelling.
