The 29th Annual Ag and Rural Lifestyle Show takes place this weekend in St. Joseph.

According to Cindy Barnes Cornelius, the event is nearing 30 years of existence because it works to change with the times.

“That’s part of what my steering committee for the event helps with because they’re the guys that are out in the field talking to farmers and producers and folks that are living that lifestyle,” Cornelius said. “So they’re great for feedback as to what direction we go with the event.”

Cornelius said the event offers a variety of entertainment, education and business opportunities including booths, a petting zoo, equipment. There will also be seminars offered on subjects such as beekeeping, cooking and more.

The Ag and Rural Lifestyle Show is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Friday and from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday at the St. Joseph Civic Arena.

The cost is $3 for adults, children ages six to 12 are $1 and children 5 and under are free. Part of the ticket proceeds go toward FFA groups helping with the show.
