The event will take place on Oct. 9 at 5 p.m. at the Grissom High School Auditorium.

This event will provide the community with an inside look at the progress made in the Hays Farm development and share upcoming plans that will further enhance South Huntsville. Attendees will hear directly from notable speakers, including:

“We are excited to share the significant progress made at Hays Farm and exciting things still to come,” said John Hays. “This development represents the culmination of years of work by the City of Huntsville and local businesses, and it’s incredibly rewarding to see the collective vision come to life in a way that benefits the South Huntsville community. We look forward to updating everyone on the next steps, especially with the public park, new retail spaces, and much more that will make Hays Farm a vibrant hub for residents and visitors alike.”
