Florida A&M University (FAMU) Farm Fest promotes public awareness of the full scope of the “land-grant concept” in education which embraces teaching, research and extension (outreach) at FAMU. The local community in the Big Bend and surrounding counties are invited to this family-friendly event, as adults and children will enjoy the workshop, hands-on demos, garden and farm tours, a kid zone and the first FAMU CEP BBQ University-Grill Master Class (capacity is limited to 20 attendees and there’s a separate $25 fee). The fee for the BBQ University- Grill Masterclass attendees include festival admission, use of a personal BBQ grill, fresh cuts of meat and a FAMU CEP’s Grill Master grill kit, to take home.
