Pig to Plate Adventure

Since 2018, the Iowa Pork Producers Association has been offering the ultimate pork industry experience for high school students! Activities include a commercial pig farm tour, a fabrication demonstration, a look into careers in the pork industry, a hands-on pork cookery class, and more! Read a recap of the November 2024 event.
The next Pig to Plate Adventure will be March 13, 2025!
This ONE-DAY event runs approximately 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Attendees are expected to participate in the entire day. If you are unable to stay for the full program, please do not register.
Registration is now full, but we will add you to a waitlist.
