Marion County Ag Venture

Marion 2The Marion County Farm Bureau’s Ag Ventures program is held annually during the Southeastern Youth Fair. It is organized and funded by the Marion County Farm Bureau, Marion County Public Schools, the Southeastern Youth Fair and local agricultural businesses. During Ag Ventures, elementary school students learn about Florida’s major agricultural commodities. They can pet a pony while learning about the equine industry, squeeze Florida oranges by hand and enjoy an ice cream cone as they learn about dairy production. Florida Farm Bureau members and volunteers throughout the community make Ag Ventures a success year after year.
