Welcome to week two of CAD! This week, we will be using the “shape it” and “style it” tool to design your favorite fruits and vegetables. We can’t wait to see what you create!

Once completed, submit your CAD design on the SolidWorks APPS for Kids Website and send your completed worksheet to designingthefuture@PennStateOffice365.onmicrosoft.com with “Your Name – Week Two CAD Submission” as the subject line.

Have you ever thought about how we got seedless versions of some foods, like grapes and watermelons? Modern farmers are constantly trying to produce better foods. Over the years, farmers and agricultural scientists have learned how to combine different plants so they’ll have new flavors, smells, colors, and ways of being grown. This type of modern farming has created new types of beautiful and incredible-smelling flowers, new foods like cayenne pepper or broccoflower, and new foods that can be grown more easily and in more places around the world.
