At Farmfest, we strive to bring together the best in agribusiness from Minnesota and around the country. We endeavor to provide one place for farmers to network, experience and learn to grow their farming operations.
We use 50 acres of land to showcase products, services and technologies from over 500 exhibitors and vendors. Through careful planning and organization, we provide live product demonstrations, host smart and insightful educational sessions and organize fun family activities to not only help farmers grow their family businesses but also to celebrate farming and the rural lifestyle.
