Fall Fair

Fall Fair has been an exciting part of our community for over 90 years, and 2025 will be another great year!

Agricultural production and food security is vital to a healthy and growing community. Come to the Fall Fair and see what's new in local agriculture and what our vibrant community has to offer!

Exhibit Entry deadlines

Due to the high number of entries and the time it takes to judge each category we will be doing 2 intakes to help support the volunteers doing the judging.

Entry Forms for Non-perishable entries (Sections: A, C, K and JA, JK) (not exhibits) will be submitted a week before perishables (dates tbd)

Entry Forms for Perishable entries (Sections B, D, E. F, G, H, P, R, V, JF, JG, JL, JV) (not exhibits) can be submitted 1 or 2 weeks beforehand. (dates tbd)

Entry Forms can be submitted next to the Farmers’ Market info booth (same location as the Fall Fair).

Late Entry Forms will have a 50% late fee applied
