Did you know the colour of an egg's shell is determined by the kind of food a hen eats?

Celebrated since the dawn of time, the egg is a symbol of fertility, creation, and new life. It is also an essential ingredient in many of our culinary traditions. It takes many steps for an egg to journey from farm to plate.

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.
