Bite By the Barn is an adult agriculture education program designed to share accurate information about production agriculture and the food supply with local consumers.

Bite By the Barn will feature interactive education from Extension specialists and industry experts, delicious bites sponsored by local industry partners and an opportunity for consumers to ask their agriculture and food supply questions.

The program is completely free to registered participants, who will receive educational resources, tasty treats and free admission into the Clay County Fair the afternoon of the program at no charge to them.
