The 85th Cannon Grange Agricultural Fair is set for Sunday, August 27th and serves as the grand finale to summer in Wilton.
The annual event is an authentic agricultural fair which recalls Wilton's rural past with juried exhibits inside the historic Grange Hall of home-baked goods, sewing and needlework, hand crafts, home-grown vegetables, fruit and flowers.
Live musical entertainment will be performing throughout the day, plus there will be games for kids, selected concessionaires for teens and adults to do shopping. Ending the day will be the annual watermelon-eating contest and the auction of baked goods, vegetables and flowers from the exhibits.
Admission is $2 per person, or $1 with a canned good donation for the Wilton Food Pantry.
Parking is available at the Cannondale Railroad Station with a reminder to all to use the crosswalk in front of the Grange Hall.
