Mission and Goal Statement
Arizona Farming-Ranching Hall of Fame

The mission of the Four Rivers Heritage Center at Lakin Farm is to preserve and present the agricultural and ranching history of the State of Arizona. As development continues to flourish across Arizona our agricultural-ranching legacy is fast disappearing. To preserve this legacy the Four Rivers Heritage Center at Lakin Farm has established the Arizona Farming - Ranching Hall of Fame.

The Goal of the Hall of Fame will select seven Honorees annually, two posthumous and five living, that represent farming and ranching families, educators, businesses and the sciences that have created an enduring legacy for future generations. Established at the Four Rivers Heritage Center at Lakin Farm the Hall of Fame will enable visitors to learn of the Honorees contributions to Arizona’s heritage, past and future.
