In an effort to "cultivate our future farmers," the Oconee Farmers Market is planning to host its first-annual Fields of Promise dinner as a scholarship fundraising event for the Oconee County Future Farmers of America.  

The dinner will be on Saturday, August 24 from 6 until 8 p.m. at Thomas' Cotton Gin 

The dinner is a part of the market's effort to encourage and build the love of agriculture and community to future generations. The dinner will feature local chefs, local farmers and live music!

Tickets are $25 alone or $60 for a family rate (two adults and two kids). Tickets are available at the Oconee Farmers Market each Saturday from 8 a.m. until 1 p.m. at the Courthouse in downtown Watkinsville and on Tuesday from 4 until 7 p.m. at the Watkinsville First Christian Church.
