Supply Chain Relay Race
A set of five printable activity station cards for a team-based relay or rotation game that walks students through the stages of the agricultural food supply chain: Production, Processing, Transportation, Storage & Distribution, and Retail. At each station teams complete a hands-on physical or creative challenge (tossing “seeds” into a target, simulating a factory assembly line, navigating a blindfolded obstacle course, balancing a product while reacting to “Freeze/Go” calls, and pitching a product) that mirrors a real step in getting food from farm to consumer.
