The School in Every Garden By A.G. Kawamura
The 48th District Agricultural Association is a state entity, one of the 78 fair districts in the state. Our mandate is to put on a fair, which became increasingly difficult as we lost our fairgrounds and the area became more urbanized.
The 48th DAA has assembled teaching materials, including Common Core lessons, from diverse sources, and purchase or receive donations of books, hydroponics materials, bread kits, incubators and aquariums and chillers.
