About

 

The Caldwell County Community has a deeply-rooted history and tradition in the agriculture and skilled trades industries. To educate students about these industries, inspire them to consider getting involved, and encourage them to celebrate their community’s history, Caldwell County Schools and partners are organizing the Agriculture & Trades Expo. Businesses large and small and community organizations specializing in agriculture and farming, energy systems, construction, and other skilled trades are encouraged to sponsor and present at the fair-style event. All seventh- and eighth-grade students from Caldwell County Schools will visit the expo and enjoy its offerings before it opens to the greater community. Agriculture and skilled trades are crucial to our community and our neighbors’ community. This event will increase awareness and understanding of these critical industries for community members, young and old. 

This event is considered the cornerstone of cultivating student interest, harvesting opportunities for career exploration, and getting students on the path to building workforce skills. Nearly 1,700 students will explore the agriculture and trades expo and leave ready to share information with their community.
