Proud to celebrate Farmworker Awareness Week! 🚜🌾

Ever wonder how your favorite fresh food makes it to the table? Meet the incredible parents of our Steele Center kids.

From the fields of Blount and DeKalb to the nurseries of Jefferson and St. Clair, these hardworking neighbors are the backbone of Alabama agriculture. Whether they are harvesting cotton, managing poultry, or planting peanuts, they work tirelessly to ensure we all have safe, affordable, and fresh food every single day.

📸 Meet Audilia—one of the many dedicated mothers picking fresh produce in the fields near our center. We are so grateful for her hard work and the heart she puts into everything she does!

Let’s show some love for the hands that feed us. ❤️👇



¡Orgullosos de celebrar la Semana de Concientización sobre los Trabajadores Agrícolas! 🚜🌾

¿Alguna vez te has preguntado cómo llegan a tu mesa tus alimentos frescos favoritos? Conoce a los increíbles padres de los niños de nuestro Steele Center.

Desde los campos de Blount y DeKalb hasta los viveros de Jefferson y St. Clair, estos laboriosos vecinos son la columna vertebral de la agricultura de Alabama. Ya sea cosechando algodón, cuidando aves de corral o sembrando cacahuates, trabajan incansablemente para asegurar que todos tengamos alimentos frescos, seguros y asequibles, todos y cada uno de los días.

📸 Conoce a Audilia: una de las muchas madres dedicadas que recolectan productos frescos en los campos cercanos a nuestro centro. ¡Estamos inmensamente agradecidos por su arduo trabajo y por el corazón que pone en todo lo que hace!

Mostremos nuestro aprecio a las manos que nos alimentan. ❤️👇

Fyè pou nou selebre Semèn Konsyantizasyon Travayè Agrikòl yo! 🚜🌾

Èske w janm mande tèt ou kijan manje fre ou pi renmen an rive sou tab la? Rankontre paran enkwayab timoun Steele Center nou yo.

Soti nan jaden Blount ak DeKalb rive nan pepinyè Jefferson ak St. Clair, vwazen sa yo ki travay di yo se poto mitan agrikilti Alabama a. Kit y ap rekòlte koton, jere bèt volay, oswa plante pistach, yo travay san pran souf pou asire nou tout gen manje ki an sekirite, abòdab, epi fre chak jou.

📸 Rankontre Audilia—youn nan anpil manman devwe k ap keyi pwodui fre nan jaden ki toupre sant nou an. Nou tèlman rekonesan pou travay di li ak kè li mete nan tout sa l ap fè!

Ann montre yon ti lanmou pou men ki nouri nou yo. ❤️👇

During this month’s meeting, Chas will provide an overview of the Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) and how landowners can leverage its support to improve their land. He will also share insights on how youth can pursue conversation careers through agencies like NRCS and offer an honest perspective on working with or for the NRCS during a federal government shutdown. The meeting will conclude with a Q&A discussion to address participants' questions.
