“It starts with an awesome Florida spring day. Exploring all of the many attractions and vendors on the fairgrounds to watching the kids go crazy on the midway. Then ending the day watching a concert on the Wish Farms Soundstage.” — Chris Sparkman, Director

“My perfect vision of a day at the festival includes my daughters, who are in college in Gainesville and Orlando, bringing their friends home to Plant City for the weekend and spending the day showing off our great festival. It is always the most fun experiencing the festival through the eyes of a first-time guest. Every year, we have the same friends wanting to come back and bring new friends!” — Lori Yarbrough, Associate Director

“My perfect vision would be seeing first-time attendee families arrive at the festival. Getting to see their initial reactions to the attractions, entertainment, vendors, rides and simply being able to watch them enjoy some family time at the 2020 event would be pretty perfect.” — Pastor Calvin “Pee Wee” Callins, Associate Director

“A perfect vision for me is starting the day off at Spivey’s for breakfast, walking the livestock barns and helping exhibitors to have a positive experience. For lunch, we eat at the FFA Iowa Pork Chop booth, talking with patrons about the positive experience of our youth agricultural programs and eating fried cheese from the Wisconsin cheese booth. We finish our evening watching the amazing entertainers, finding new eating experiences (I love eating!) and having reunions with friends and acquaintances that are made year after year.” — Brian Shepherd, Associate Director
