A fun, casual evening of delicious food, live entertainment, dancing, and a live auction have been planned for the State Fair Community College Foundation’s Farmfest March 25 in the Fred E. Davis Multipurpose Center on the Sedalia campus.
The event is open to the public and begins at 6 p.m. It will feature cocktails and appetizers; dinner at 6:30 p.m. and a dessert dash, live music featuring Hunter Hathcoat, a live auction, and dancing. Brad Driskill, SFCC Agriculture director, will be the master of ceremonies.
“Our gala events focus on the college’s major needs, so after the college purchased 200 acres of farmland on the west side of campus, we knew, without a doubt, we wanted a Farmfest gala this year,” said Mary Treuner, SFCC Foundation executive director. “Acquiring this land will be a huge boost to the college’s Agriculture program and will provide our students more learning opportunities that will enhance what the world needs to thrive … good, healthy food!
“This expansion will require several phases to get a top-notch college farm up and running, so we hope the community will want to be a part of this exciting and worthy adventure that will benefit our students and the communities we serve, and greatly increase the college’s footprint in Sedalia.”
Farmfest tickets are $100 per person. Individuals, groups or businesses also may reserve tables of 10 for $1,000.
Casual attire is suggested. Parking is available in front of the Davis Multipurpose Center.
Reservations are due by March 17. To reserve seats and buy spirits for guest tables online, visit www.sfccmo.edu/farmfest
