Ontario Agricultural Fairs at a Crossroads
Across Ontario, agricultural fairs have long been woven into the fabric of rural life. For more than a century, many fairs have celebrated farming, food, youth achievement, craftsmanship, and community spirit.
Preparing for the OAAS Convention

Ontario Visited – A Fair Story
If you’ve ever been to a fall fair in Ontario, you already know the magic.
You step onto the grounds and something happens, something between the smell of fresh doughnuts, the sound of livestock calls, and the laughter drifting from the midway. It feels familiar, even if it’s your first time.
Agricultural Fairs in Ontario
Walk through any Ontario fairground in September and you’ll smell it before you see it, fresh-cut hay, cider doughnuts, diesel from a tractor-pull, and that unmistakable barn-sweet scent of shavings and show cattle. Agricultural fairs feel timeless because, in Ontario, they almost are.
