USRPA Participates in the Texas Rice Festival in Winnie

October 11, 2024
Last week, USRPA staff members Iris Figueroa and Grace Wang joined the Rice Education Exhibit at the 55th Annual Texas Rice Festival in Winnie-Stowell Park, Winnie, Texas. The event, which featured approximately 150 5th graders from Anahuac Elementary, provided a unique opportunity for students to engage with various exhibitors as part of the festival’s educational programming.

For two days, USRPA enjoyed teaching kids and families about rice and deepened their understanding of rice production, consumption, and its importance in the community. The event occurred on Friday and Saturday, serving as an invaluable platform to raise awareness about rice and encourage healthy eating habits.

Participation in such community events has allowed USRPA to play a pivotal role in promoting rice education, fostering a greater appreciation for this staple crop among young learners and their families.
