Moultrie-Colquitt County Chamber of Commerce Agricultural & Rural Services Committee Meeting

Our Agricultural & Rural Services Committee meets every first Thursday of the month (except for May, June, & July). There are several events that are planned and hosted through this Committee. A major event of the year is the VIP Farm Tour held at the Sunbelt Ag Expo. The purpose of this tour is to acquaint state legislators and officials with the realities of the farming industry and to highlight Colquitt County as an agricultural showplace. We host the Farm Safety Day for 5th graders in March. The goal of Farm Safety Day is to save lives and prevent injuries to children on our area farms. Our Agricultural & Rural Services Committee is involved in bringing together agricultural industries and retail establishments during Farm-City Week. This Committee also hosts the Farmer's Appreciation Dinner.
