Yesterday, Bristol Aggie welcomed Commissioner Ashley Randle, Deputy Commissioner Winton Pitcoff, representatives from the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources (MDAR), the Massachusetts Dairy Promotion Board, and some of the new members of the MDAR Youth Council to campus as part of their tour celebrating the start of Dairy Month in Massachusetts. The visit highlighted our Dairy & Livestock Management program and the work happening on our farm. A special thank you to our Farm Manager, Joey, for leading the tour and showcasing our dairy operation! #DairyMonth #MassachusettsAgriculture #MDAR #MassDairy #AgriculturalEducation #BristolAggie

Underclassmen in Livestock and Dairy Management had a very hands-on morning, practicing different skills. Plymouth County Extension Educator, Meg Riley, visited campus to teach the group about evaluating fleeces, ways to utilize wool, such as fertilizer and nutrients for crops, and the process of preparing a fleece to sell. The students skirted the fleeces from our sheep, which were harvested last week, removing debris and tags.🐏 Other students were also busy practicing their clipping skills on the heifers. These fitting skills will be put to the test in a few months at Fall Show!🐄 #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #AgriculturalEducation #Wool

Juniors in Landscape had a quiz on plant ID. They are using their skills to identify trees, shrubs, and perennials around campus. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence

Lily Berube, (class of 2019 + current owner of Little Fern Florals in Westport) worked with our junior class on a large wedding. Students replicated her design for the aisle markers, which she later used at a wedding in Mashpee. We are grateful for her support and allowing more design opportunities for our students! Support Lily at littlefernflorals.org!🌸 #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #Floriculture #FloralDesign

Yesterday the Class of 2026 was treated to a well earned senior breakfast! Thank you so much to Mr. Lee and his amazing kitchen staff for putting on this meal!🥞🎓 #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #SeniorBreakfast

Last week a group of students from a variety of majors visited three different farms. The trip started at Freedom Food Farm, a regenerative vegetable and livestock farm. Students learned about the production aspect of agriculture, the unique systems they use to heat their greenhouse, soil health, and how their different livestock species work together to promote each other’s health. The next stop was the Plymouth County Sheriffs Farm. Meg Riley, Plymouth County Extension Educator, explained the benefit of a rehabilitative agricultural program for inmates. In one group, students explored agricultural career opportunities, and practiced conducting a livestock inspection across the farm petting zoo. Another group of students learned about the hydroponic and aquaponic farm systems, which feed local programs. Finally, we stopped at the Taunton Boys & Girls Club community kitchen and freight farm. The students learned about their program and how they serve their community through meals and produce grown in their freight container vertical farm! Thank you so much to these community farms for sharing their modern agricultural systems with our students! It was very educational and inspiring for our youth in ag.🍀🪴 #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #YouthinAg #VerticalFarming #ModernAg #RegenerativeFarming #HydroponicFarming

Juniors in Veterinary Science got to do a wellness exam on two cats, practicing skills of restraint, obtaining vitals, and running tests. They also got to observe an x-ray on one of our rabbits and learn about the process!

The livestock seniors have been learning about weighing and sampling bulk milk tanks during their last term. This is a critical quality check point between the farm and the processor to ensure safety, fair pricing, and quality of product. Not only is it important to keep consumers safe, but the producer's compensation will also be tied to the quality of the samples they collect in addition to measuring the volume of the liquid. Last week we invited our state Animal Health and Dairy Inspector, Elizabeth Hall, to test the students who earned their Bulk Milk Hauler & Sampler certificate. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence

🌿🚓 Our Landscape seniors recently rolled up their sleeves for a great community service project at the Dighton Police Department! Students spent the day giving the station’s landscape beds a much-needed spring refresh by trimming, weeding, and remulching the existing plantings. Their hard work helped spruce up the property and create a clean, welcoming appearance for the department and community visitors alike. A big thank you to our Dighton Police Chief Nichols and PD staff for the opportunity, and great job to our students for showcasing their skills, teamwork, and community pride! 🌱👏 #BristolAggie #LandscapeProgram #CommunityService #DightonPD #HandsOnLearning

Seniors in Ms. Peixe’s ELA classes enjoyed some 1920s-themed props provided by Mrs. DePaula. Students finished the year with a study of The Great Gatsby. #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #TheGreatGatsby

Mrs. Reilly's freshman History I class played a game to further their knowledge on trusts in the1950's! #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #History

The Arboriculture Senior's final and most challenging task was to learn to safely utilize a chainsaw in a tree while on climbing spurs. Although a very difficult task, the climbers did great and finished the removal!🌳 #BAPride #CultivatingExcellence #Arboriculture
