The 60th Annual Rockwall Youth Fair kicks off on Wednesday, April 3. One of the highlights of the Youth Fair is the AG Awareness School Day. Approximately 600 RISD 3rd graders will visit the RISD Agriculture Facility and engage in interactive learning sessions ranging from “learning about farm animals” to “fun and easy gardening”. 4-H and FFA members will serve as tour guides for the event.
