🌱 Did You Know? 🌱
Beans, chickpeas, and lentils have been feeding people for over 9,000 years — dating back to 7000–8000 B.C. 🤯

🌍 World Pulses Day is celebrated every year on February 10, and it’s the perfect chance to learn more about pulses and the Alberta farmers who grow them. From dry beans and lentils to chickpeas and peas, these crops play an important role in Alberta agriculture and our global food system.

📚 Celebrate with your students using The Story of Food: Pulses student activity book — a hands-on way to explore where pulses come from, how they’re grown, and why they matter.

👉 Order your class set and celebrate World Pulses Day in your classroom! https://www.agricultureforlife.ca/product-page/the-story-of-food-pulses-print-version-1
