A Night to Remember: Arcadia & Wauchula Appreciation Dinner

We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us for our recent appreciation event hosted by the Farm Credit of Florida Arcadia and Wauchula branches on Thursday, May 22nd, 2025, at the beautiful Padgett Family Ranch.

It was an unforgettable evening filled with live music, laughter, and the mouthwatering crawfish feast prepared by the one and only Randy Davis from Quality Liquid Feed. 

Here’s to more moments like this, celebrating the people who make our community so special!

Three men are gathered around a large metal container filled with steaming cooked crawfish. One man is holding the lid open while another is preparing to transfer the crawfish into a cooler placed below the container. The third man stands nearby holding two cups. The scene takes place outdoors on a grassy area with trees in the background.
