MEET FLORIDA MEAT EVENT INFO

MARCH 21 & 22, 2026 | MOUNT DORA, FLORIDA

WE'RE READY FOR 2026!

For five years now, Meet Florida Meat has brought together families, farmers, and food lovers to celebrate the hardworking people behind Florida’s farm-direct food. What started as a small gathering has grown into one of Florida’s most anticipated community food events — and 2026 will be our biggest year yet.

 

2026’s theme, “What’s At Steak,” shines a light on the resilience of Florida’s direct ag community. In the face of hurricanes, urban sprawl, rising costs, and regulatory hurdles, our farmers and ranchers continue to show extraordinary grit and determination. This event is about honoring that resilience and giving the public a true understanding of what it takes to keep Florida fed.

 

We invite you to join us as for Meet Florida Meat 2026, taking place March 21–22, 2026 at Great Scott Farms in Mount Dora, FL.
