Art of Agriculture Photography Contest and Auction

Agriculture is both an art and science. Through science, creativity, imagination, and resilience, our farmers paint a canvas that feeds the world.  Join Farm Foundation as we celebrate agriculture through photography. 

We were positively overwhelmed by the photos, stories, and engagement we had around the "Art of Agriculture" photo campaign.  Through this effort, contributors from 16 different states shared over 100 photos and personal stories of their connections to food and agriculture!  

Farm Foundation has plans to share these moving pieces in a variety of ways as we continue elevating the voices of the families of agriculture but for now, we have some fabulous ways for you to take part in this celebration of agriculture.

"Farmers have tilled the soil for thousands of years so that we can not only survive, but thrive.  With the world’s population continuing  to increase , it has never been more important to ensure that Mother Earth does the same.  Farmers are at the forefront of this critical work incorporating breakthroughs in the use of technology to create efficiency, productivity and sustainability.  This piece celebrates the beauty of nature and the enduring values of agriculture, while challenging us to meet the needs of a changing planet.
