I — Our Roots · ROOTED
Heritage & Community
Ethan was born and raised in historic Bealsville, Florida — an African American community founded on agricultural heritage, landownership, resilience, and an unshakable entrepreneurial spirit.
His maternal family's roots in this land reach back roughly three generations. ETHANVILLE grows from that soil: a continuation of legacy, carried forward by the next generation.

Rooted in community. Growing through opportunity.
ETHANVILLE is more than a name. It represents Ethan's growing journey through agriculture, leadership, and entrepreneurship.
Born and raised in Bealsville, Florida, Ethan is building upon a rich community heritage of agriculture, entrepreneurship, and perseverance.
As he prepares for the 2026 Hillsborough County Fair Youth Livestock Show and Sale, Ethan is inviting individuals, businesses, family members, and community supporters to become part of his journey.
Whether through auction participation, collaborative support, or personal encouragement, every connection helps cultivate future opportunities.
Become an Auction Buyer
Ethan has dedicated time, effort, and responsibility to raising Frankie Mae, his 2026 FFA swine project.
He is seeking prospective buyers interested in participating in the Hillsborough County Fair Youth Livestock Auction.
Submitting this form does not constitute official auction registration or a binding bid.
Join a Buyer Group
Supporting a young agricultural entrepreneur doesn't have to be an individual effort.
Ethan welcomes interest from individuals, families, organizations, and businesses who may wish to coordinate their resources toward purchasing Frankie Mae at auction. The anticipated auction purchase target is $3,000–$3,500, and supporters may express interest at different levels.
An expression of interest only — not a financial commitment. All group purchases follow the Hillsborough County Fair's official auction procedures.
Invest in Ethan's Journey
Some people support Ethan because of his agricultural endeavors. Others simply believe in him and want to encourage his future.
Personal encouragement and financial gifts can help Ethan continue developing his interests in agriculture, education, leadership, and entrepreneurship. For those who wish to support Ethan personally, we welcome the opportunity to connect.
Personal gifts are separate from the fair auction and are not tax-deductible donations.
