AGRICULTURAL EXHIBITS: THE BARN AND THE GARDEN
So much more than just plants and animals, the Youth Agricultural Division allows exhibitors to showcase and apply what they’ve learned in school and beyond. Fairgoers are given the chance to ask the questions they’ve always wanted to ask, such as maintenance, or how the animal is groomed to how much that 1,200-pound steer may eat in any given day. Visit the goats, steer, swine, horses, chickens, bunnies and many other animals at The Barn. Fairgoers will be able to enjoy equestrian competitions, including three days of Ranch Sorting competitions with participants from all over the U.S. In addition to The Barn, The Garden is an area that immerses the fairgoer where he/she will be able to enjoy the many and varied products of the Miami-Dade County horticulture industry and check out competitive landscaping student entries. This will also serve as an additional destination within the Youth Fair where fairgoers can relax and have a pleasant time.
