Schomberg Agricultural Society
The Schomberg Agricultural Society is a Canadian nonprofit organization (Business Registration Number 119142685RR0001) that operates the annual Schomberg Fair, one of Ontario’s longest-running agricultural fairs. Established in the mid-19th century, the society has organized the event for over 170 years, with the 174th edition scheduled for May 23–25, 2025[1][4]. The fair serves as a celebration of local agriculture, crafts, and community heritage, emphasizing agricultural education and rural traditions.

History and Mission

Founded to promote agricultural practices and community engagement, the society focuses on preserving rural heritage through exhibitions, competitions, and public events. The fair historically includes agricultural showcases such as cattle and dairy shows, horticultural displays, and equestrian events[3].

Key Events and Attractions

The Schomberg Fair features a Demolition Derby, Grand Parade, live music, midway rides, and agricultural competitions[1][3]. A 4-H Dairy Show highlights youth involvement in farming, while craft exhibitions and homecooking competitions showcase local talent[3][4]. The event attracts over 10,000 visitors annually, offering family-friendly activities while supporting regional agribusinesses[5].

Governance and Operations

Run by volunteers and governed by elected directors, the society enforces strict participation rules for exhibitors, including liability waivers and adherence to safety standards[2]. It operates as a registered charity, relying on sponsorships and community partnerships to maintain affordability[5].

Cultural Significance

The fair’s theme for 2025, “Celebrating Our Community Heroes,” reflects its role in honoring local contributions to agriculture and rural life[1]. Its longevity underscores its status as a cultural institution in the Township of King and surrounding regions[3].
