Vendors come from all over the Texas and Oklahoma regions; even from New Mexico and Colorado right here to the Key City for the Texas Farm Ranch and Wildlife Expo which is going into its 13th year.

It's a destination where those in the agriculture-related business can show their merchandise and provide services to their consumers.

Organizers say this isn't your typical show because there's a little something for everybody, from home-made honey to larger than life farming equipment.

"It's about the only event that we're aware of where you get farm, ranch and wildlife all under one roof," says Debra Morotini of the Abilene Chamber of Commerce. "You have a lot of farm shows and ranch shows and wildlife shows, but this one encompasses all three."

The event will take place at the Civic Center on Feb 21-22. There are still booths available to anyone interested.
