Jordan College Open House

Saturday, October 19, 2024
9 a.m. - 12 p.m.
O'Neill Park at Fresno State (2611 E Barstow Ave, Fresno, corner of Woodrow/Barstow Avenues)

As the kick-off to our campus Food, Family and Farm Month, the public is invited to our Open House to see how Fresno State is shaping the nation's leading agricultural area with free, family-friendly activities, campus farm and winery tours and demonstrations, and lots of prizes, giveaways and face painting for the kids.

Sample free, student-made ice cream, grapes, nuts, raisins and other farm products.

Kids and families can see farm equipment up close and can learn more about agriculture through crafts, games and other educational activities.

Students from our mule packing team will also teach kids how to rope, and other student clubs, faculty and students will help kids learn about drones and plants that they can take home.

Those interested in science can learn about student research shaping the future in our nearby Jordan Agricultural Research Center (which includes a tour of the only building of its kind in the nation).

All ages are welcome, and more information is available from Jordan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology event coordinator Luz Mendoza (luzmendoza@csufresno.edu)!

The same morning, also stop by the Whole Vine Festival across the street (Barstow Ave) and the Fall Festival at the Gibson Farm Market (5368 N. Chestnut Ave.).
