Ag Day at the Farmington Fair!

September 21st, 2026

Ag Day is an annual kid’s education day for kindergarten through fourth grade students. Coordinated by the Franklin County Soil and Water Conservation District, this day is focused on agricultural, environmental and conservation-based topics. Students will be able to visit educational learning stations throughout designated areas of the fairgrounds where volunteers will be doing demonstrations, presenting educational information, providing samples of agricultural products, and/or offering a hands-on activity.

Ag Day will run from 9am to 1pm. Registration is required, please email Caroline at: ccollins@franklincountyswcd.org or call 207-778-4279.

Admission is free only for students and a chaperone from 9am-1pm on Monday, September 21st, 2026. Please make sure you bring your Ag Day printout (given when you register) to show at the fair entrance and follow fair staff who will be directing you where to park.

Students with teachers or chaperones should arrive around 9:00 am to check in. Presentations will run from 9am to 1pm. Lunch break will be any time after 12:30. Presentations will end when the students go to lunch. Students are asked to bring their own food, as lunch is not provided. All Ag Day attendees and presenters are welcome to purchase food at the fairgrounds and are encouraged to explore the fair!

We ask that everyone is respectful of the fairgrounds, volunteers, presenters, and animals. Students must be with a chaperone at all times. A friendly reminder to pay attention to vehicles traveling to and from the parking lot, as the fair will be open.

We look forward to seeing you on Ag Day!
