Georgia AgrAbility took over the National AgrAbility's Facebook page for its Virtual State Fair on October 21. It was highly successful. To date, GA AgrAbility has had an overall reach of 13,256 of people accessing their posts. Many thanks to National AgrAbility for hosting this event. Staff also loved learning more about each state.


Normally at this time of year, GA AgrAbility has a large presence at the Sunbelt Expo. It is one of the largest agricultural shows in the region. Due to COVID, the show was cancelled. Instead staff hosted a virtual Expo to spotlight various vendors that are normally with them At the Expo. Vendors included Jiffy Hitch, Life Essentials, GVRA, and Georgia Action Mobility Equipment. You can view the spotlights on their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/farmagain2.


The Institute on Human Development and Disability, in which many of the Georgia AgrAbility staff work, co-hosted the award-winning Hearts of Glass documentary for the university community. After the film showing, there was a panel discussion held on October 27th and Doug Crandell was GA AgrAbility's representative expert on disability employment.
