New blogs and videos will be uploaded to the campaign page throughout the next three weeks. We want YOU to get involved! Here's how...

- Share the infographic "Working in Agriculture" that showcases the many careers young people can pursue
- Add a badge to your Twitter or Facebook profile to declare "I am Ag"
- Share blogs, videos, case studies, advice and insights using #IamAg - you could be turned into an illustration or feature in Farming First's wrap up video at the end of the campaign!
