Program recognizes state’s rich agricultural heritage
CONWAY, Ark. (Arkansas PBS) — Arkansas PBS will livestream the 2023 Arkansas Century Farm Induction Ceremony Monday, Nov. 27, at 10 a.m. as part of its Arkansas Live initiative at myarpbs.org/arkansaslive.
The Arkansas Century Farm Program, administered by the Arkansas Department of Agriculture, recognizes Arkansas’s rich agricultural heritage and honors families who have owned and farmed the same land for at least 100 years.
Inductees are chosen by an application process – each family chooses whether to submit an application and participate in the program. Successful applicants receive a personalized certificate and a metal sign identifying their historical farm.
Arkansas Live is an initiative from Arkansas PBS that brings compelling special events directly to Arkansans via vivid, multi-camera livestreaming. Viewers gain front row access to some of the most in-demand events across the state, including livestreams from Crystal Bridges, Arkansas Department of Heritage, Winthrop Rockefeller Institute, and more.
