Agrofest has grown into a landmark three-day national showcase of the best of Barbados’ farming community and rural life, including crops, livestock, and agricultural equipment. It is an opportunity for farmers, agro-processors, and other industry stakeholders to connect with the public and promote their products and services. The event also features a range of activities, including cooking demonstrations, agricultural tours, and a kids’ zone.
The Barbados Agricultural Society invites the public to come out and enjoy the festivities at Agrofest and tune in to Radio Agrofest to stay informed and entertained throughout the event. The station will be available online from February 24.
