Begun in 1955 by Henderson County Cooperative Extension and Kiwanis International, Farm City Day takes place on about 50 acres of Jackson Park in Hendersonville and features urban, rural and educational displays, antiques and modern farm equipment and crafters from many generations. The event focuses on agricultural awareness, teaching children and adults where their food comes from and who produces it. A special youth area features hands-on activities including a farm animal petting zoo, old-timey demonstrations, a fishing pond and other children’s games and activities. Entertainment includes local bands performing throughout the day. Food trucks also are available. Farm City Day is free. However, there are cash fees for some of the activities, as well as for vendors selling food and more.
