Specialty Crop

Specialty-crop-related entries in the Open classes include a variety of baked goods, including fruit pies and goods with at least 50% honey for the sweetener; jellies, preserves, marmalades, butters, and jams; canned vegetables and fruits; pickles and relishes; sauces; gardening, including fruits, vegetables, and herbs; cut flowers and artistic arrangements using flowers; and agronomy.

Additionally, there are many categories for 4-H and FFA members, including ones in agronomy, horticulture, and foods. Those participating in the Open, FFA, and 4-H contests can compete at the state fair, and prizes are awarded at both the county and state levels.

The Park County Fair, held annually in late July, also includes a carnival, parade, live entertainment, livestock shows, a magic show and mind games, kids’ zone, stock dog trials, demolition derby, and many other events.
