Collier County elected officials are thrilled to once again be participating in Farm City BBQ as the \u201cCelebrity Servers\u201d. Over 68 years ago, the National Farm-City Council was established with the goal of showcasing the vibrant communities of farmers and business owners and their interdependence. When Collier County\u2019s farmers had a bad year of crops, the Naples business leaders reached out to them for a BBQ so their families wouldn\u2019t go hungry on Thanksgiving. A year later, the farming communities reciprocated\u2014and a beautiful tradition was born.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Farm-City BBQ is deeply rooted in the coming together of different people and communities, and in its 68th year, we plan to return to those roots. The Farm-City BBQ celebrates life and living, a collective network to demonstrate what matters. As we\u2019ve grown every year, so has our next generation of leaders. All proceeds go back into the community to support youth leadership development programs.<\/span><\/p>\n

As one of the five founding members of Youth Leadership Collier, I encourage you to join us! <\/span>Tickets are available for purchase until November 26th at farmcitybbq.com\/tickets\/.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
