FSGA is proud to be an exhibitor at the Florida State Fair each year. This year Sarah, Glenda and our Florida Strawberry Growers Association Ambassadors helped man the booth. And, as you can see Jammer, our sought-after animated mascot, even made an appearance. If we do say so, our booth is one of the most popular booths at the Fair! After all, who doesn’t love fresh, flavorful, Florida strawberries?
The finest produce, livestock and poultry Florida has to offer the very latest farm equipment and technological advances in agriculture are featured at the Fair. More than 500 4-H members and nearly 1,000 FFA members exhibited a variety of farm animals including steers, dairy cows, swine, goats, poultry, rabbits, sheep, llamas and dogs.
If you missed the Fair this year plan now for next year. Be sure to come by our booth. We’ll be looking for you.
Last year, the Florida State Fair attracted more than 480,000 visitors. Every year, the Fair supports the local economy and creates countless jobs in Florida, contributing nearly $150 million in sales to the local economy and more than $35 million in wages and salaries. Check it out.
