KINGSTON – Members of the Kingston Agricultural Commission are looking to build upon last year’s successful fair and announce that the Kingston Agricultural Fair will take place Sunday, Sept. 29, from 1 to 4 p.m. on the grounds of the Kingston Town Hall, 26 Evergreen St.
Admission to the event is free. Come and see what the fair has to offer; including 4-H members and local farmers with their animals, informational tables from regional organizations, the opportunity to see antique farm equipment, items for sale such as local flowers and eggs. Additionally, there will be live music, a variety of food and beverage trucks, and representation from a number of Kingston Town Departments. Attendees will have the chance to participate in a drawing for a free, handmade braided rug by Sandy O’Fihelly and see Kingston’s newly constructed Veterans’ Memorial.
The Silver Lake Regional High School Class of 2025 will benefit from the “Cow Plop” fundraiser which will be held during the fair. Grid tickets will be available for $20 through the school, and on the day of the fair. When a cow “goes plop” on a certain grid the winning prizes include a JBL speaker, $100 worth of gift cards, or $500 in cash. Monies raised will help with the cost of the senior picnic, dinner dance, and prom. The cows are provided courtesy of the 4-H Club.
“Last year’s event was a huge success and we’re hoping for another great turnout,” said Debra Mueller, the Town’s Animal Inspector. “There’s something for everyone. It’s a chance to see firsthand the importance of agriculture and aquaculture in our lives, and to have some fun at the same time.”
Admission is free. For additional information, please contact Agricultural Commissioner Jean Landis-Naumann, jln12@comcast.net or (339) 832-0782.
