KNOW WHERE YOUR FOOD COMES FROM
Utah’s Ag in the Classroom strives on education
Logan, Utah – Utah is dedicated to educating its students on the importance of agriculture and strives to improve an appreciation of where food comes from through its Ag in the Classroom program located on the Utah State University campus.
Ag in the classroom is a national, program implemented by each state, to help students develop an understanding of the importance of agriculture and where food and cloths come from.
“Agriculture is our connection to life,” said Deb Spielmaker, Project Director. “With only two percent our population producing food and fiber for us all, many of the students have no idea where their food and clothing comes from.”
Utah’s Ag in the Classroom program is a non-profit organization that receives financial support from interested individuals and organizations.

Good job. I suggest putting the quote higher in the press release. It is a good quote.
Sarah,
Watch for your AP style mistakes. For example Logan should be LOGAN. You also have a couple of spelling errors (cloths, should be clothes).
You're idea is a good one. I would try to make it a little more newsworthy. Why should journalists write about ag in the classroom? Are their any statistics that show kids don't know where their food comes from?
