The only agriculture-related free event in
Rutherford County!
Adventures in Agriculture is FREE to the public and full of family-friendly fun! This annual event, hosted by members and partners of the Rutherford County Agriculture Community, features many hands-on activities to teach families about agriculture’s impact on our everyday lives. Our goal is to educate the community about where their food comes from, what farmers do, and how even families that don’t live on a farm can have agricultural adventures at home!
We will be collecting items for the Rutherford County ATLAS School Backpack program
at this event.
Farmers will be sharing their knowledge of animals, crops, homegrown foods, handmade products, and more with parents and children
Families can explore booths, participate in games and activities, and see farm animals, farm equipment, and even fire trucks
We will be accepting canned food donations as part of our Farm Bureau Gives Back initiative for the Rutherford County Food Bank at registration.

The first twenty Rutherford County teachers (with a current teacher ID) to register will receive a $20 gift certificate from a local teacher’s store and other teaching resources
We wouldn’t be able to put on this wonderful community event without the support of our local sponsors!
We make agricultural education fun for everyone.
At one time, you could visit the county fair to learn about your local agricultural community. Rutherford County no longer has a fair, so for over 10 years, Adventures in Agriculture has been the only agriculture-related free event in the county. We are proud to continue the American tradition of community outreach through this annual event.
Adventures in Agriculture truly has something for everyone. There will be plenty of games, food, and information. Don’t miss this family fun day for all ages on Saturday, April 9, 2022 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Visitors can purchase refreshing concessions, and Riverdale FFA will be selling plants as a fundraiser. Everything else at the event is completely FREE!
Check out the adventures we’ve had over the years.
