The goal of this event is to help
educate the community about the importance of agriculture and conservation in
their daily lives. It is a hands-on opportunity for people to become
better connected with local farmers and ranchers who help put the food on their
tables, conserve the land for future generations and wildlife, and provide the
base for many products we use daily.
Local farmers and ranchers along with others
involved in the agriculture industry will share their passion and knowledge of
where our food comes from and how it is grown.
