A year of celebration is underway as we count down to America’s 250th birthday.
You will likely see activities at your state fair.
Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins urged state fairs to join the America 250 Celebration. She highlighted the nation’s strong livestock, bountiful harvests, and rich communities as proof that the vision of our Founding Fathers endures.
More than 35 states have already committed, planning fireworks, veteran tributes, historical exhibits, and more.
USDA will celebrate in its own unique way, hosting what the department has coined “The Great American Farmers Market.”
According to Sec. Rollins, “We will have in August the biggest, most amazing American farmers market in the history of our country in Washington, on the National Mall. Every farmer, every rancher, every producer from every state who sells their beautiful crops and their products and their pork and their beef to join us in Washington during National Farmers Market Week.”
That event is slated to take place August 3-6, and we will bring you coverage from the mall.
