Rural Route Living Apparel

Back by popular demand, the IAA Foundation has launched Rural Route Living apparel as a fundraiser to support ag literacy! This limited-edition apparel is available by pre-order only and must be ordered by Friday, October 13. Short sleeves, long sleeves, crewnecks, hoodies, & Richardson hats are available to show your rural route pride. Items may be picked up at IFB Annual Meeting or shipped directly to you for a small fee.

Donate an Auction Item

Donations are currently being accepted for both the Live & Online Auctions to benefit Illinois Agriculture in the Classroom! Back this year, ALL auction items will be in-person & on display at IFB Annual Meeting. Mindful donations that will ship well to the winning bidder while still infusing hand-crafted items, local goods, farm collectibles, sports memorabilia, and Christmas gifts into the auction are encouraged. Donations are requested by October 30.

For more information or to make a purchase or donation, visit the IAA Foundation website. Thank you for considering how you can help support Illinois Agriculture in the Classroom!
