For more than 70 years, Garland ISD and the community have come together to celebrate Career & Technical Education at the Livestock & Plant Show and Sale, as well as the CTE Exhibit. This gathering allows the public to purchase homegrown goods and peruse innovative, class-based creations. GISD invites community members to become a part of this tradition March 27-28 at the Curtis Culwell Center.
During the show, agriculture students from Garland and South Garland high schools will present their yearlong livestock projects for auction and judging. Thousands of bedding plants, hanging baskets, herbs and vegetable starters will also be for sale. And creations from various CTE classes—from architecture to cosmetology to TV production—will be on display.
The CTE Exhibit will kick things off at 8 a.m. Friday, March 27, followed by the Livestock Show at 6:30 p.m. The Plant Sale will begin at 8 a.m. Saturday, March 28, while the Livestock Auction will commence at 2 p.m.
Entrance to the 71st-annual GISD Livestock & Plant Show and Sale, as well as the 34th-annual Career & Technical Education Exhibit, is free of charge.
