FAIRFIELD — The Kenny Norton Southeast Iowa Farm Show will return to the Fairfield Arts & Convention Center on Saturday, March 4 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Admission to the Farm Show is free and open to the public.
Now in its eighth year, the show has become one of Iowa’s top ag expos, featuring the latest in machinery, seed technology, grain handling, and more. Sponsors and exhibitors in agri-businesses throughout Southeast Iowa will be showcasing their latest technology and making connections with the community. Lunch will be available for purchase from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., served up by the Jefferson County Pork Producers, and there will be attractions for children and families throughout the day.
“Southeast Iowa Farm Show is one of the biggest and most important events we organize here,” said Fairfield Arts & Convention Director Lindsay Bauer. “Fairfield’s culture is rooted in agriculture and for us to be able to support growth in that industry is a big deal.”
The Farm Show will be followed by a performance by country music icon Billy Dean at 7:30 p.m. that evening. Tickets to the Billy Dean concert are $18-$39 and are available to purchase at fairfieldacc.com or by calling the Box Office at (641) 472-2787.
The Southeast Iowa Farm Show is supported by sponsorship by many area business leaders.
Current sponsors for 2023 include Jefferson County Farm Bureau, Pilot Grove Savings Bank, BASF Ag Solutions, Heartland Co-op, Libertyville Savings Bank, Fairfield Precast Concrete, and Hammes Vermeer LLC.
