Deputy Premier of Nevis and Minister of Agriculture, Hon. Eric Evelyn, praised the Government of Anguilla and organisers of Agri Fest 2026.

This comes as Anguilla hosted its Agri Fest on May 8^th. The event was a showcase of the island’s agricultural sector and commitment to food security.

Hon. Evelyn attended the agricultural exhibition and was accompanied by Assistant Secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture, Mrs. Rhosyll Gaskell and Director of Agriculture, Mr. Randy Elliott.

Mr. Evelyn said Anguilla’s use of modern technology and innovative farming practices was particularly noteworthy given the island’s dry climate conditions.

The event was held under the theme: “Transforming Local Food Systems to Feed the Future”.
