MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (WKRN) — Community members gathered in Murfreesboro Sunday for the seventh annual Downtown on the Farm fundraiser, which celebrates local food while raising money for future entrepreneurs.

The event highlights Murfreesboro’s small businesses, farmers, and chefs, while also funding a scholarship for a Rutherford County student pursuing entrepreneurship at Middle Tennessee State University.

According to event organizer Missy Lay, the dinner reflects the heart of Murfreesboro.

"People don’t move to Murfreesboro because we have five Walmarts," she said. "They move to Murfreesboro because we have an amazing community, we've got lots of great small businesses, we have several amazing chefs in our area, so we love to highlight our local everything."
