Overview

Mission

Instruct the public on agriculture today by conducting annual five day fair or exhibition showcasing livestock, farm produce, home and garden produce, home crafts and old and new farm equipment and machinery and other related exhibits and activities. No fair was held in august 2020 because of covid -19. A fair was held in august 2021 following all crowd restrictions and health related procedures in place at that time. Although smaller it was a success.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of total spending goes to programs and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
