The first Friends of Ag Breakfast for 2024 is set for 7 a.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 21, at the Green Creek Community Center. 

The guest speaker for this event will be Stephen Bishop from the N.C. Cooperative Extension Agency. He will share how NC FarmLink connects farmers and landowners to farm transition and succession planning resources.  

This event is free and open to the public. Local farmers, growers, and other food producers provide fresh ingredients for a delicious complimentary country breakfast. This month’s FOA breakfast sponsor is AgSouth Farm Credit.

This historic breakfast has been held for the past 12 years featuring speakers from many local farms and other agricultural experts in their field. It is the place to meet your neighbors and connect with community support agencies that are here to help us all maintain our beautiful, rural agricultural county. 
 
This event is held at the Green Creek Community Center, which is located at 25 Shields Drive in Tryon.

To be sustainable, please bring your coffee mug and plate. A complimentary breakfast will be served. 

Friends of Agriculture Breakfast is held on the third Wednesday of every month November through May. (Note: FOA in December is the 2nd Wednesday, the 13th).
