AGROFEST 2014 began today with a renewed focus on heritage and entrepreneurship.
This year’s agricultural exhibition featured a heritage village with memorabilia of a bygone era.
“This is our 10th anniversary and we are reflecting on agriculture of the past so the entertainment is targeted to looking back,” said coordinator Theodore Fraser.
Fraser said the theme was Encouraging Entrepreneurship through Innovative Agriculture.
As is the norm, the schoolchildren were allowed in first and he said they appeared to be having a great time taking in the food, exhibits and entertainment. The general population was allowed in at 4 p.m. and for the next two days. (CA)
