d. Farm Resilience Bingo Activity

This bingo activity was created by Maria Pippidis, University of Delaware Cooperative Extension, to engage multiple people in exploring actions that individual farmers and members of farm families can take to self-assess what they currently do to reduce risk and build resilience. An educator can use at the beginning of a group session as a pre-test of what the participants are doing and at the end as a measure of which of these actions they intend to do. Alternatively, it could be used as an activity to keep people engaged as the actions are introduced in a presentation. The Bingo game is available at: https://www.udel.edu/content/dam/udelImages/canr/pdfs/extension/Agribusiness/Farm_Resilience_ Bingo_Activity-4-15-20.pdf
