The Great Mississippi Peanut Boil

is this Saturday at the Mississippi Farmers Market!

Rogers Farms in Collins, MS has donated the peanuts for boiling.

Members of the Mississippi Peanut Growers Association are offering complimentary roasted peanuts.

And kids (adults too if you so desire), Miss Haley will be back painting faces.

While you shop the market, pick up a complimentary

bag of boiled peanuts and popcorn - while supplies last.

The Mississippi State Fair

October 6th - 16th

The 163rd Mississippi State Fair is back in all of its awesomeness!

Come out with the family - there will be enough fun, food and festivities for everyone to enjoy!

Agritourism is a business on a working farm, ranch, or other agricultural enterprise that offers an educational and fun experience for visitors while generating supplemental income for the owner. Mississippi's rich and colorful agricultural heritage is filled with great innovation and success, and although it remains the leading resource in the state's economy, agriculture constantly changes with time, technology, needs, and opportunity.  A vital component to Mississippi's economic development is the State's Tour and Travel Industry.  Although an estimated 24 million people travel to and around Mississippi each year, its marriage with agriculture is no longer such a well-kept secret. By linking these two driving forces in Mississippi's economic development efforts, a very successful partnership is being realized.

Imagine pumpkin patches, hay rides, corn mazes , u-pick Christmas Trees, tomatoes and sunflowers as far as the eye can see.

Adventure, fun and entertainment -

This and so much more is

Mississippi Agritourism!
