The Rice County Historical Society will create "Agricultural Options," an exhibit on farming that explores the values associated with the land and farming practices that are profitable yet sustainable. The exhibit will identify trends in farming, make connections with environmental issues linked to the land, and enhance the visitor's experience through educational activities. Visitors will examine their own environmental values and how they align with their actions as part of the exhibit's educational activities which include lessons for three grade levels, a driving tour, and interactive sites that will enhance their economic and environmental awareness about how actions based on environmental values impact the land today and into the future.
