Georgia Grown goes back to school with farm days, student memberships

Students at Commerce Primary School spent some time in the corn crib last month.
The school kicked off its year as a Feed My School for a Week participant by hosting "Aww, Shucks! Day" on Aug. 27. Students in kindergarten through fourth grade learned how to shuck corn provided by Osage Farms in Dillard, Ga.
"It's a fun, hands-on experiment," said Susan Harvin, school nutrition director for Commerce City Schools. "We had stations set up with volunteers. Kids came out of their classrooms, were handed an ear of corn and given a demo on how to shuck corn, and then got to go at it."
Harvin said the school plans to have one activity a month dedicated to agriculture in preparation for its official Feed My School week next spring.
This is the fourth year of the program, which connects selected schools with Georgia Grown to procure locally grown ingredients for cafeterias, Program Director Misty Friedman said.
"This not only enhances the [US Depart-
ment of Agriculture] healthy food guidelines, it helps show off all of the foods we grow here in Georgia and how many of them can be used in the school systems," she said. "It has really started to enhance these school nutrition programs."
Commerce Primary joins Cave Spring Elementary in Cave Spring, Annie Belle Clark Elementary in Tifton and Mossy Creek Elementary in Cleveland for Feed My School 2014. Each school has a plethora of activities planned throughout the year.
Feed My School activities at Cave Spring will include art projects, agriculture integrated into the science and social studies curricula and a field trip to study George Washington Carver and the peanut, Principal Trina Self said.
"In this day and time, kids don't realize the chicken they get in the grocery store is a real chicken and could have grown in our area," Self said. "We want them to know what Georgia-grown foods are and the nutritional value of those foods."
Ideas for Feed My School meals run the gamut breakfast for lunch is a hot trend, and barbecue is always a favorite.
"They can do a barbecue sandwich. We've got several places throughout the state where you can buy inspected pork products that fit the USDA guidelines," Friedman said. "With that, you'd have coleslaw with locally grown cabbage, carrots with dip and a fresh fruit cup with strawberries and blueberries."
Even the bun for the sandwich, or wheat to go in it, can be sourced through Georgia growers, as can dressings if the school does not make its own, Friedman said.
"School nutrition directors are now able to introduce in a controlled atmosphere some different things that normally they may not have offered to the students before, or it may not have been offered in that manner," Friedman said. "What we're seeing is the kids are very willing to try these things because they think it's so unique and so different, and then it's giving the kids ideas of things they can use at another time."
Georgia Grown's farm-to-school reach expands this year with the new Test Kitchen Initiative. Ten school systems were chosen to participate, allowing students in kindergarten through 12th grade to try new recipes for

Big changes in local and state rules for animal feeding operations have some producers wondering which permitting option best fits their needs. The Department and Georgia Environmental Protection Division put together a series of confined animal feeding operation, or CAFO, information sessions to address these questions and concerns.
Historically, animal operations with head counts that exceeded a certain threshold were required to obtain a CAFO permit. But in March 2011, the US Court of Appeals handed down a ruling that said any feeding operation that doesn't discharge waste into state waters can apply for a Land Application System, or LAS, permit instead. LAS permits are issued by the state and CAFO permits are issued under federal authority, said Audra Dixon, industrial permitting manager for Georgia EPD's Waste Water Regulatory Program.
"If you read the rules, there's a lot more to it, but that's really what the take-home needs to be: that you are no longer required to have a CAFO permit based on the number of animals that you have," Dixon said.
See CAFO, page 9

GUEST COLUMN: Destination ABAC
More and more students are program-
ming the GPS on their phones to Abra-
ham Baldwin Agricultural College. It
seems to be the destination of choice for
an increasing number of students seeking
an excellent college education. These stu-
dents are from the majority of the counties
in Georgia, as well as from surrounding
states and a few from other countries.
A major contributing factor for the
BAKER
increase in enrollment is the approval in 2008 to offer the bachelor's degree.
Today, approximately 35 percent of the students enrolled at
ABAC are seeking a bachelor's degree. Other contributing
factors are the recognition by the diverse stakeholders of the
quality of the programs, the high value relative to the low cost
and the dedicated, exceptional faculty. ABAC has, for more
than 100 years, prepared citizens of Georgia, the region, the
nation and other countries to be successful in life. Gradu-
ates from ABAC have made significant contributions to their
communities where they live and work. The historical context
paved the way for ABAC to emerge as a destination today
and for the foreseeable future.
The School of Agriculture and Natural Resources is recog-
nized by students, parents and industry partners as providing
the education needed to make a contribution back to society.
This fall semester, nearly 54 percent of the 1,100 students
with a major in the school are seeking a bachelor's degree.
Yet the school continues to also serve those students who
desire to transfer to other institutions in the region for a more
specialized degree. We, the faculty in the School of Ag and
Natural Resources, are committed to providing a rigorous and
relevant learning environment for preparing the leaders of our
society well into the future.
Challenging the young, innovative mind of the student today is necessary for providing a sustainable future for all citizens. Students today need to be exposed to more challenges and to be better prepared to be critical thinkers to solve the problems that face society. Food security, water and soil conservation, energy utilization and access to sufficient capital are issues that will require the next generation of agricultural leaders to offer creative solutions. The faculty at ABAC continuously seeks to amend their courses to be relevant for today and the future. The faculty and students understand that they must apply the technical content to solve real world problems. Students are not asked to just repeat what they read or heard, but rather they must be transformative in the utilization of their knowledge gained through the courses. Faculty and students are engaged outside of the formal classroom through various student clubs that help develop leadership skills. Many of the students participate in internships that expose them to challenges and work environments which lead to job offers months before they graduate.
The vision for the School of Agriculture and Natural Resources is to provide a home for the student that will allow them to obtain an excellent education which will lead to graduation on time and prepare them to contribute at their next destination in life and work.
Jerry Baker is the new dean of the School of Agriculture
and Natural Resources at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural
College in Tifton, Ga. Baker previously worked as the re-
search, Extension and instruction leader for animal and dairy
science at the University of Georgia-Tifton Campus. Since
2008, Baker served as the chief executive officer, executive
director and publisher of American Scientist magazine for Sigma Xi, the scientific research society. He completed his
Ph.D. in animal breeding and genetics at Texas A&M Uni-
versity in College Station, Texas.
GUEST COLUMN: Growing farm-to-school with FoodCorps
One of the most successful tactics to
get children to eat more fruits and veg-
etables is to have them plant, grow and
harvest food in a garden, which is one of
the core components of a farm-to-school
program. These programs are also hands-
on ways to educate students about careers
in farming and the wonders of the soil.
And luckily for our state's young eat-
ers and future growers, farm-to-school in
CROOM
Georgia is about to get a big boost. National service organization Food-
Corps, which connects children in underserved communities
to real food in order to help them grow up healthy, expands to
Georgia this month. Georgia Organics will partner with them
and three service sites across the state: The Captain Planet
Foundation in Atlanta, Athens Land Trust and the Northeast
Georgia Farm to School Program (Georgia Organics' pilot
program).
This partnership with FoodCorps will enable more than
15,000 students to have the opportunity to grow and eat fresh,
delicious food and learn more about farms and farming. The
demand for fresh local food is growing -- according to a
University of Georgia report, in 2012 to 2013, more than 13
million meals featuring local food were served in Georgia
schools. According to the US Department of Agriculture
census, school districts spent more than $6.9 million on local
food during that same period.
FoodCorps places emerging leaders into limited-resource
schools for a year of AmeriCorps service, during which they
implement their three-ingredient recipe for healthy kids:
facilitating local food purchasing, gardening and cooking
with kids and teaching about food and nutrition. Nearly 200
service members will be placed in host agencies and schools
across 16 states and the District of Columbia this year.
And the need for this innovative nutritional education has
never been greater. Nearly 1 million Georgia children are
overweight or obese. While 43 percent of Georgia teenagers
eat less than one vegetable a day, the state is the fourth-largest
producer of fruits and vegetables in the nation. Healthy students are better learners who perform better academically, so farm-to-school programs are critical to support a growing workforce and healthier population.
A key goal of Georgia Organics' farm-to-school program is to create demand for the freshest, most delicious, healthiest produce that our farmers can provide by educating kids about where food comes from. That means connecting them back to the soil and the farmers who grow in it.
When that happens, we are able to support farmers by increasing demand for those products from schools, an entity with huge buying power. At one of our most promising pilot projects, 10 sustainable farmers within 50 miles of the county are now selling to the school district. This pilot will hopefully serve as a model for rural districts throughout the state, and it presents real opportunities to expand locally based food systems and organic agriculture at the community level.
There's already so much momentum for this work. Through Georgia Organics' farm-to-school program, which includes the 5 Million Meals Campaign and the state's premiere farm-to-school award, the Golden Radish, we've built partnerships with school districts, government agencies, UGA Cooperative Extension and more. Alongside these key partners, we created the Georgia Farm to School Alliance, a statewide coalition that's still going strong. And by teaming up with FoodCorps, Georgia is ready to take farm-to-school to the next level.
Thanks to the growing farm-to-school movement, the conversation is changing about what kids want to eat. Students are asking for fresh fruits and vegetables grown by farmers they know. They're not just trying it -- they're loving it. And in the process, they're learning about farming, too.
Erin Croom is farm to school director at Georgia Organics and serves as the state lead for the National Farm to School
network. Raised in Mississippi, she has a Master's in Com-
munity Development and Applied Economics and researched
the economic and health benefits of farm-to-school programs
in rural communities.

Letter from the editor
Like many Americans, I enjoy coming home from a workday and relaxing with a favorite TV show (or two). My boyfriend Justin and I are huge fans of Food Network, and we absolutely love to watch its show "The Kitchen." This is pretty much a food talk show with five hosts, including Iron Chef Geoffrey Zakarian and one of my favorite network chefs, Jeff "Sandwich King" Mauro. The show is peppered with recipes, games, cooking tips and fun segments that relate back to food. I enjoy the segment called "Into it, over it." Here, the chefs take turns sharing something in the food world that they are into and something that they're tired of hearing about ... kind of like the overplayed top 40 songs on radio stations.
So, ladies and gents, I bring to you the inaugural edition of my personal "into it, over it," agriculture style!
* Into it: Gourmet burgers. The top three food groups in my life are bread, cheese and meat. Meat lends the way toward ground meat, which can be turned into fantastic patties and topped with everything under the sun. I'm pretty adventurous when it comes to meat, so I love trying new combinations. For example, Justin's in our kitchen creating beef burgers topped with brie, sundried tomatoes and a Dijon mustard dressing. The thing about gourmet burgers is that even though they're popping up in restaurants everywhere, it's kind of hard to be over something when there's so many different things you can do with it! And plus, if you're not as experimental with bacon jam, avocados, sauted mushrooms and lamb patties as I am ... there's always the American classic standby right next to it on the menu.
* Over it: Kale. I get it, y'all, I really do. We have to balance eating meat (or protein in general, if you're vegetarian or vegan) with eating like, green things. Kale, however, is just one of those green things I could never get into to begin with. Especially in smoothies. More power to ya if you can liquefy kale and spinach together with blueberries, chocolate or whatever else goes in your blender, but it just isn't for me.
* Into it: AgChat. If you are on Twitter, you need to do AgChat on Tuesdays. AgChat is a really nifty conversation held over social media. A moderator from US Farmers and Ranchers Alliance tweets (that's Twitter language for "posts") out a series of questions and gives conversation participants 10 minutes or so to answer and talk amongst themselves. By tagging #agchat in my tweet, everyone participating in AgChat can see my answer, and I can see those posted by everyone else. Not only does AgChat allow you the chance to share your perspective, but you also get a good feel for questions and concerns consumers have.
* Over it: The term "factory farm." I'm preaching to the choir here, I know, but I find that phrase offensive, and I'm not even a farmer! Factories are large industrial facilities with whirring machines. Are they bad? No! But do we raise cattle, cotton, chickens or anything else in a factory? No! Factories are where the harvested livestock and agricultural products are turned into processed food products, if that is what a producer desires. They're not the places where animals and crops are raised. The end.
* Into it: Sunflowers. Sunflowers just make me happy. I love driving down the road at the end of summer and beginning of fall seeing fields of vibrant gold dotting the highway. Granted, I don't understand (yet!) much of the science behind sunflowers being a rotational crop, but I'm really glad Georgia farmers plant them!
And finally, one last one. *Over it: Gators. Really, did y'all expect me to not write an editorial of this type during football season and not throw this one in there? Dallas Duncan is the editor of the Market Bulletin. Originally from Evans, Ga., she graduated in May 2011 with a double ma-
jor in animal science and agricultural communication from the
University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmen-
tal Sciences. She previously worked for The Red & Black, The Times newspaper in Gainesville, Ga., and Georgia Cattlemen's Association.

ARTY'S GARDEN: September is a good month for butterflies
PIPEVINE swallowtails nectaring on garden phlox
September may be the best month to watch butterflies. Georgia's roadsides, fields and forest edges are full of native asters, goldenrods, liatris and other flowers that are butterfly favorites. I grow larval host plants for caterpillars as well as flowers for adult butterflies, and in September the butterfly population in my garden seems to be at its peak.
Tiger swallowtails and monarchs were two of the first butterflies I learned as a child. I still get a thrill when these large, colorful butterflies gently sail into my garden. As an adult I learned to identify and appreciate less showy species such as the hackberry butterfly and tawny emperor. I didn't know either of them until a few years ago. Both are refined masterpieces in browns and grays. But almost as much as their visual beauty, I enjoy observing the habits of butterflies.
The many species of skippers (I cannot tell them all apart) have a darting, skipping flight pattern. They seem to jump into the air, and I cannot predict where they will land. They are jackrabbits among butterflies.
The underside of the wings of the buckeye is relatively dull, but the upper side is mysteriously
beautiful with colorful eyespots. It is quick and nervous, so I rarely get an extended view of its open wings. September's cooler temperatures allow me to get a better view of this butterfly basking in the sun.
I see few, if any, cloudless sulphurs in spring or early summer. In September I may have eight to 10 at a time brightening the garden and tussling with each other (or appearing to tussle) as they fly high into the air as if on a column of smoke.
Sulphur is an older spelling of sulfur, the mineral whose color is a perfect match for these butterflies. There are numerous species of sulphurs, but the cloudless sulphur is my favorite of the lot. It is "cloudless" because some of the others have gray patterns or markings.
The cloudless sulphur prefers to feed at flowers frequented by hummingbirds instead of those favored by other butterflies. It folds its wings when feeding and goes dead still. It can look like a yellow-green leaf, a momentary camouflage.
The pipevine swallowtail is the jittery opposite. It keeps its wings aflutter when feeding. It is like a squirming 4-year-old boy who won't sit still even to eat. Perhaps this action better reflects the iridescent blue on its back wings, warning predators that it is poisonous.
For the first time ever, I witnessed a pipevine swallowtail laying eggs on the pipevine growing at the edge of my porch. Now a troupe of chocolate worms is skeletonizing the leaves. All the munching caterpillars won't hurt the vine; in fact, they saved its life: I decided that if it did not attract any pipevine swallowtails this year, I was going to cut it down and plant something else.

Safely packed lunchbox first line of defense against foodborne illness at school
By Eythan Franklin, Food Safety Division
As September gets underway, the No. 1 thought on every parent, caretaker and student's mind shifts to the new school year. With a long to-do list to get ready, one of the things parents must consider is their student's lunchtime safety.
On average, children ages 6 to 12 bring a packed lunch to school at least once a week. To ensure a student's lunch is properly packed, there are several steps parents or caretakers should follow to keep food poisoning at bay. Parents can consider the following tips a personal food safety checklist for back to school this year, to keep packed lunches safe and prevent foodborne illness.
Storing lunch
One of the most concerning safety hazards for a home-packed lunch is proper storage.
Picture it: the lonely lunch box, sitting in a cubby or locker for hours until lunchtime rolls around. By that time, food may have already been sitting in the temperature "danger zone," between 42 and 139 degrees Fahrenheit, for too long. To prevent this, choose lunchboxes with insulated lining or an insulated pocket that can hold a reusable frozen cold pack. Periodically wash the lunchbox in warm, soapy water to prevent bacteria from growing on its surfaces and when kids want new lunchboxes every year, indulge them just to be safe.
Prepping the Kitchen
Before actually packing up that perfect lunchbox, the first preventative measure is cleanliness and sanitation to prevent crosscontamination of germs and bacteria. Before handling food, always wash hands with warm water and soap for 20 to 30 seconds. Wipe food preparation surfaces such as the counter or cutting boards with a household cleaner or
bleach solution. Bleach solutions can be made with a ratio of one tablespoon of liquid bleach for each gallon of water. Re-sanitize any such surfaces that come into contact with raw meat, poultry or fish, and use clean utensils and packing materials.
Packing Lunch
After the kitchen is sanitized, it is time to safely pack that lunchbox.
Pantry items are considered shelf-stable foods that are the most convenient to pack because they do not require refrigeration or cooking. Refrigerated or perishable items can be a little trickier. When perishable foods are potentially in the danger zone, they should be eaten within four hours and thrown out after that. Otherwise, bacteria begin multiplying and the food product may cause foodborne illness. To ensure lunch does not spoil before lunchtime happens, there are several things parents can do.
Rinse fresh fruits and vegetables under running water before packing. If possible, don't slice the produce first. This will help it stay fresher longer. Once the lunchbox is packed, keep it in the refrigerator until the student leaves for school, and store a cold pack or frozen juice pouch near perishable items.
In the winter, hot soups or chili might be lunch options. Hot foods should be kept at or above 140 degrees Fahrenheit, which can be accomplished using an insulated thermos or container. This keeps the food hot until lunchtime and prevents it from dropping into the temperature danger zone.
Safely packing school lunches can be a teachable moment and a family affair. Take time to educate children on the importance of hand washing before eating lunch and properly storing the lunchbox at school.
Following these tips should ensure the student's food is not only appetizing, but safe to eat.
CAFO: Rule change allows producers to choose different permit types
From Page 1
The good news is that animal feeding operations have several options they can choose from.
Producers who are LAS permit holders can obtain coverage under a new general LAS permit, a general CAFO permit or an individual LAS or CAFO permit. If they no longer meet the threshold that requires them to have a permit, producers can submit a notice of termination and implement the closure guidelines in
their nutrient management plan, Dixon said. General CAFO permits are provided by
the EPD because these farmers may decide they do not discharge into waters of the state, and as such are eligible to obtain coverage under a general LAS permit, Dixon said. In the future, the EPD may develop a new general CAFO permit if there is sufficient interest for one.
"This is not an overnight decision, and it
needs to be something that is not made for fear of regulations," said Everett Williams, a dairy farmer from Madison, Ga., who attended the Aug. 20 information session.
The goal is to make the environment safer for farmers and consumers alike, Williams said.
Dixon said it is important to stress that there is no "one-size fits all": everyone has their own unique operation and unique cir-
cumstances, she said. She reminded farmers to keep an open line of communication with Extension services and state regulatory and service agencies.
"I don't know that any of us on the panel today can really fully understand or comprehend the decision that some of you have to make, but we are here to help you make informed decisions, so you can make the best decision for your farm," Dixon said.

Students earn associate's degrees, equipment training
through collegiate John Deere partnership
By Dallas Duncan
The campus at South Georgia Technical College turned green this fall John Deere green, to be exact.
August marked the first month of the school's John Deere TECH Program, which moved north to Americus, Ga., this summer after being held for several years in Thomasville, Ga. It's one of 16 such John Deere programs in the US.
"South Georgia Tech's primary mission is workforce development, and this fits hand-in-glove with what we're doing," college President Sparky Reeves said. "We feel really good about being here for 65 years and the position we are in now to teach some specialty courses for industry-specific needs."
The industry-specific need in this case is a shortage of technicians in the field, said Jenni Badding, manager of college partnerships for John Deere.
"We're training individuals to become entry-level service technicians. We're giving them the skill set and all the background on John Deere equipment and our software and things like that so they come out of the program ready to hit the ground running," she said.
The two-year program rotates students every eight weeks between lab-guided lectures and internships with dealers. It results in trained technicians and associate's degrees, said John Wilder, student affairs coordinator for South Georgia Tech.
There are 17 students enrolled in the inaugural program, which Reeves said put them exactly where they wanted to be. As the program grows, he said they hope for 50 students: 25 on campus at one time and 25 doing internships.
Topics will include engines, hydraulics, electrics and onboard equipment, Wilder said. Students will learn to work on a variety of equipment, such as tractors, farm implements and lawn equipment in the green product line.
During their internships, responsibilities will include set-

ting up new equipment, doing daily repairs on customers' equipment and shadowing senior technicians, said Todd Rice, branch manager for Albany Tractor Company in Pelham, Ga.
"At the end of the day what you're getting is a technician
that's well-rounded and can understand the equipment across the board," Wilder said. "That's still something that's very valuable to John Deere. They can take that technician that's trained here in Georgia and they can move him up to Maryland and he can understand their philosophy and equipment."
In order for students to be accepted into the program, they must be represented by a John Deere dealer, Reeves said.
"They will have to have some basic inherent mechanical aptitude to make it through their dealer representation," he said. "Can you have a four-year degree and come into this? Absolutely. And anything they have on a four-year side can help them with the curriculum."
Badding said as agricultural equipment becomes more technical, it's important to have individuals in the field able to work on the software as well as the hardware.
"The dealers like getting students out of this program because they are experienced on John Deere systems and equipment, versus a general diesel program where they don't have access to our diagnostic software, Service Advisor," she said.
TECH students also are guaranteed jobs when they graduate, Rice said. He said what makes this program and others like it Caterpillar offers a similar partnership different from general diesel schools is the training on manufacturerspecific technology and building the industry's future.
"It's hard to put into words what this is going to do for us," Rice said. "With agriculture being so large in the state of Georgia, you've got to have tractors and technology to run with it. You've got to have technicians, and technicians turn into supervisors, and supervisors turn into managers."
He said his dealership is excited to be part of the TECH partnership.
"That school is going to be supported by the dealerships. It's a relationship, it's a partnership, it's a livelihood," he said. "Being vested into the school is being invested in your company."
Growing trend of aquaponics allows fish, crops to be raised simultaneously
By Dallas Duncan
Editor's Note: This is the fourth story in
a series on Georgia's seafood industry. Next
issue, we'll take a look at fish and shellfish
processing facilities.
There's a new component coming to neighborhood Yard of the Month competitions: raising fish and prize-winning hydrangeas in the same container.
"Something that's coming on strong that we get calls on just about every week now is on aquaponics. Aquaponics is raising produce and fish at the same time," said Sidney Shepherd, seafood compliance manager for the Department's Food Safety Division. "People are very interested in that because of the local seafood and local produce push right now buy green, buy local."
Aquaponics allows growers to raise protein as well as vegetables, fruits, herbs, animal food and even houseplants simultaneously, said Ryan Cox, chief executive officer of HATponics in Rossville, Ga.
"Having a sustainable protein source that's feeding a sustainable vegetable source using 10 percent of the water of traditional agriculture was an actual solution [to hunger problems]," he said. "We were able to provide higher caloric intake providing aquaponics, because both the fish and plants are eaten."
Cox's farm is aquaponics on a mission: not only does HATponics create residentialsized aquaponic facilities, but the company develops tanks big enough to feed entire villages overseas. The larger tanks allow his company to target people who don't have access to quality food, and enable them to participate in agriculture, he said.
The plants grow on waste produced after fish are fed a nutritionally formulated feed, said Patricia Duncan, director of the Geor-
gia Center for Aquaculture Development at Fort Valley State University.
"Basically you're just using the fish to process the feed to make a fertilizer to grow the plant. So any fish that you want to grow that's a freshwater fish, as long as the temperature matches for the vegetables and the herbs and the fish, it will work," she said.
Cox raised 60 varieties of fish and 600 varieties of crops using aquaponics.
"We like the catfish, we like the tilapia," he said. "We've also had a lot of luck with barramundi and perch, and we also raise crawfish as well as bass. We've done well with pretty much everything."
Kimberly Ashe-Steckelberg, co-owner of Georgia Mountain Farms in Eastanollee, Ga., has a large variety of fish too, including koi and goldfish. She found tomatoes, mint, lettuces, okra and strawberries do well, and her next project is to try watercress. Cox said tuber-based crops such as potatoes, or ones with heavy heads such as broccoli, will not do as well raised in an aquaponics system because they become waterlogged.
"What I found is that every system is unique," Ashe-Steckelberg said. "It's no different than growing crops in the ground what's going to work for you isn't necessarily going to work for the guy down the street."
Her system is low density, with more vegetables than fish.
"The fish are contained in their own holding tank and the water flows from the fish tank to the beds and circulates back around," Ashe-Steckelberg said. "Once it's back around, it's clean. It's a closed loop system."
Different crops can be raised in the same system, as long as growers pay attention to the space each plant requires when planting, Cox said.
Because aquaponic operations are small-

er than pond-based ones, they work well in urban settings, Duncan said.
"The ability to raise fish and lettuce and vegetables in these aquaponic units and sell on different scales also allows people to get into it and start producing things for their own security," Duncan said. "They take up less area and you can produce fish with 10 percent of the water that pond-based systems use."
That makes it fit well in both domestic farms like Ashe-Steckelberg's and agriculture outreach overseas through HATponics.
"The idea is to create economic drivers through sustainable agriculture," Cox said. "[The grower] satisfies their own agricultural needs first. They eat and they harvest."
And the harvested surplus is taken to market, which Duncan hypothesizes is why there's so much interest in it.
"In the past to get into aquaculture, 200 acres of ponds maybe was a recommendation to get into commercial catfish production," Duncan said. "But in these systems you don't need much space. You can grow just like you had a backyard garden."

Georgia's newest collegiate agriculture program isn't at a land-grant university: Athens Technical College is transitioning from offering an ag mechanics course to having an entire associate's degree track.
"The way I envision our program is very much along the lines of how four-year programs are designed, where you have a lecture portion and a lab portion for each course," said Chris Morgan, Athens Tech program chair for agriculture. "Agriculture is very hands-on, so giving students an opportunity to get their hands dirty, so to speak, is very valuable for the learning experience."
Morgan plans for the program to be an Associate's of Applied Science in Agriculture degree with three specialization tracks: poultry, horticulture and livestock and pasture management. The long-term vision is to end up with three or more separate associate's degrees in agriculture, he said.
Athens Tech's degree will be the first of its kind for agriculture programs at Georgia technical colleges. Nearly 700 students were enrolled in such programs during the 2013 to 2014 school year, and that number is expected to rise once this year's data come in, said George Schramm, curriculum program specialist for the Technical College System of Georgia.
"The great bulk of our programs are more horticulture and landscape focused," Schramm said, adding that there are forestry, golf course management and precision agriculture options as well. "Our programs typically develop at an individual college based on the employment needs in the area."
Mark Deal, environmental horticulture instructor at Coastal Pines Technical College in Waycross, Ga., sees an increased need for his program's graduates in the area.
"The Georgia economy is on the rebound, and so is the job market for horticulture program graduates," Deal said. "The landscape management industry in southeast Georgia is also seeing rebounds, and I have had numerous inquiries from employers looking for well-trained, qualified individuals to carry the industry forward."
Chattahoochee Technical College in Marietta, Ga., offers both horticulture and environmental degree options, said Rebecca Long, public relations specialist. She said these programs offer opportunities for students interested in taking classes and then going straight to work, or to get a higher degree.
"About 25 percent of the US population has a four-year degree. But what you do find is you have to have some post-secondary or after high school training to get a decent job in this economy. Most of those jobs are what we'd traditionally call the trades," Morgan said. "Those jobs require a certain level of math, of business and artistic ability to a certain degree."
Long echoed his sentiments. "Agriculture, horticulture, environmental studies all of these are areas that no matter how technologically advanced we get, we're never going to be able to move away from them," she said. "In a lot of horticulture or agriculture jobs, there's a lot that you don't need higher education to obtain. However, to move up in a career you do need those credentials to prove that you do know what you're talking about and what you're doing. A lot of our students have positions in the field already and use technical education as a way to be promoted and provide more stability." Morgan said he thinks there's opportunities for students to get viable careers in agriculture by taking courses that get them started in that direction. He plans for the Athens Tech agriculture degree program to be in full swing next fall.

SCHOOLS: Georgia Grown program introduces Test Kitchen Initiative
From Page 1
Georgia school lunches. The Georgia Grown team will send recipes to these schools to cook
and obtain student feedback on, and the ones with rave reviews will be sent to all of Georgia's nutrition directors for inclusion on menus across the state. And twice a year the selected schools will be asked to submit favorite recipes of their own for distribution, Friedman said.
"We're trying to make farm-to-school so user-friendly that everyone can do at least one farm-to-school product a month," she said.
Alpharetta High School will serve as one of the test kitchens this year, along with East Jackson Elementary in Commerce, Union County High in Blairsville, Lincoln County Middle and High in Lincolnton, Dacula High in Dacula, McClure Middle in Kennesaw, Carrollton Junior High in Carrollton, Hutto Middle in Bainbridge, Hartwell Elementary in Hartwell and Bleckley County Elementary in Cochran.
"We had been serving Georgia-grown items for a long time in Fulton County Schools, and we always look for new ways to introduce these items for our students," said Holly Thaw, area supervisor of menus and wellness for Fulton County School System. "The recipes will be prepared by our staff. We definitely want to discuss the recipes with our students, especially the culinary arts students who are interested."
Thaw said Alpharetta High students already have developed taste palates, so it will be interesting to see how their feedback compares to students in the middle and elementary schools selected to be part of the Test Kitchen Initiative.
"We thought this would be a great new way to showcase these items to students that have already tasted this item and decided they may or may not like it," she said.
And this school year, students not only get to eat Georgia-grown, they can actually be Georgia Grown. The program plans to offer student memberships later this fall, said Matthew Kulinski, the Department's deputy director of marketing.
"A lot of students contacted us about wanting to be involved in Georgia Grown and see how they could use the logo on their agricultural products," Kulinski said. "Surprisingly, a lot of high school age students across Georgia grow and raise Georgia-grown products that could use the logo."
He added students who show livestock can now join Georgia Grown and use the logo on their show halters and other attire and equipment.
The memberships are available to middle and high school students involved in agriculture and interested in showing their pride for Georgia, Kulinski said. The one-time $25 membership will include full rights to use the logo, a membership card, a USB drive, a notebook and other promotional items in addition to the logo CD.
He said it's an opportunity for students who turn their ag projects into flourishing businesses while still in school. This way, they get the full benefit of a Georgia Grown membership at a reduced price.
The student memberships will be available in mid-October on the Georgia Grown Store website, Kulinski said.
