Miracle of Birth Center
at the 2011 Minnesota State Fair


Miracle of Birth Center

The Miracle of Birth Center is celebrating its 11th year and is staffed by volunteer veterinarians from the Minnesota Veterinary Medical Association, veterinary students from the Veterinary Teaching Hospital at the University of Minnesota, and members of the National FFA organization. This display, the most popular attraction at the fair, educates the public on the vital role that animal agriculture and veterinary medicine plays in the state of Minnesota. With live births and newborn farm animals, including cows, pigs, chicks, sheep and ducks,
the display highlights the importance of animals to our economy, health, and quality of life.
