AGRIFEST 2000

Agriculture 2000 and Beyond: 

No Farming, No Food

Thousands of Virgin Islanders turned out for the 29th Annual Agriculture and Food Fair of the U.S. Virgin Islands held February 19-21, 2000.

Heavy torrential rains on Saturday put a damper on fair goers.  But sunny Sunday and Monday proved to be a delight for the thousands who entered the gates for one of the biggest events of the year.

The pictures demonstrate some of the products sold and activities taking place. The Fair is like one big "Family Affair." Next year will it's 30th year - Come on Down!
