In 2000, the Rhea County Commission approached UT Extension with the idea of developing a fairgrounds on property owned in Evensville, TN. Through much hard work on the part of volunteers and staff, this dream is slowly becoming a reality. A resolution was adopted in 2003 by the county commission naming the facility the Rhea County Agricultural and Natural Resource Complex or, more commonly known as, the Ag Center. The UT Extension Committee is responsible for proposing and submitting policies and procedures for the operation of the Center. The property had humble beginnings with only an existing barn on site. Through volunteer efforts, grant dollars and donations, the Center now has a picnic pavilion, youth exhibit building and a gazebo, along with the original barn. Future plans are to construct restroom facilities and a concession stand. This facility is available to outside groups for rental.
