Howdy Tours

2025 HOWDY TOURS

Each year, hundreds of second and third graders attend a Howdy Tours at the Youth Fair where Howdy provides students with an immersive introduction into agriculture. During these tours, they learn about the wonderful world of plants and animals. Students receive a first, gentle glimpse of hamburger or pork chops on the hoof and learn where milk comes from.

WHO IS HOWDY?

Howdy is the wonderful. freckled face goodwill ambassador for agriculture at The Youth Fair. With the assistance of students from the Miami-Dade County agriculture programs and the cooperation of our agriculture community, he has developed an educational program that helps the local community gain a better appreciation and understanding of those who produce, distribute and inform us of a basic need, food and the environment.
