Did you know chickens raised in Manitoba are grain-fed and have access to fresh water at all times?
There are many different breeds of chickens. Some are raised to produce eggs, and others are raised for meat. Chicken is a low-fat meat that contains protein, amino acids, niacin, vitamin B6, iron and zinc.
The Foundations of Manitoba Agriculture is a series of interactive courses and information sheets that invite you and your students to explore the different crops grown and animals raised in Manitoba.
Making the connection between food and where it comes from can lead to healthier eating choices and a better appreciation for agriculture and it's role in feeding the world.
