Field Fest

Saturday, Sept. 12

10 a.m.-3 p.m. | Farm at the Arb

Celebrate the family farms that feed and fuel the world at the Farm at the Arb’s annual harvest celebration! This year’s festivities include hands-on activities (dig up a sugar beet!) that shine a spotlight on Minnesota’s vital sugar beet industry and grower Mary Sue Kruger. Discover the essential link between Minnesota’s expansive beet fields and the sugar found in your kitchen while exploring the profound impact of this local crop on our regional food systems.
