The Statesboro-Bulloch County Chamber of Commerce is partnering with The Downtown Statesboro Development Authority to promote Agribusiness as a top industry in Bulloch County and the region. They will host their annual First Friday Ag Night Out event on October 7, from 5:30-8:00 p.m. on East Main Street.

The community is invited to enjoy a family friendly night in downtown Statesboro. Everyone can get an up-close view of farm equipment used by local farmers and purchased by local suppliers. Agriculture has a significant impact on our local economy. People can learn more about the Chamber’s Ag partners and listen to some tunes from The Ripley’s. There will be a “farm” themed costume contest for children ages 0-5 and 6-10.
