The College of Agriculture, Health, and Natural Resources at Kentucky State University (KSU) is excited to announce the 2nd Annual AG Round Up, set to take place in a two-day event on October 11 and 12, 2024. This event will bring together middle, high and college students, faculty, farmers, local businesses, and other stakeholders from across the Commonwealth to celebrate KSU’s impact on agriculture and student professional development.

Day One – Ag Fest (October 11, 2024): Beginning with an agriculture symposium, guests will learn about KSU programs and what can be gained from a career in Agriculture, Health, and Natural Resources. Expect an outdoor festival with fair-like activities, free food, and exhibits to showcase programs, research, and ideas for students’ future path.

Day Two – KSU Showcase (October 12, 2024): Network with Ag professionals, experience a bit of university life, tour the university, enjoy a Tailgate cookout, and free admittance to the KSU football game.

“Through the AG Round Up, we are raising awareness of our impact in agriculture and in STEM sciences across the state of Kentucky” said Dr. Marcus Bernard, Dean of the College of Agriculture, Health, and Natural Resources and Director of Land Grant Programs.

The two-day event will be held on Kentucky State University’s main campus at Bradford Hall, the Rufus B. Atwood Research Building and the Yellow Brick Road, and Alumni Stadium. This public showcase is free to attend. Doors open each day at 8:30 a.m. at Bradford Hall.
