About Us
The Durham Fair is the largest agricultural fair in Connecticut. Established in 1916, our fair is traditionally held the last full weekend of September. We feature many traditional agricultural programs year after year, as well as many brand new exhibits, activities and fair food items.
The Durham Fair is owned and operated by the Durham Agricultural Fair Association, Inc. We are a private not-for-profit organization.
Community Participation
The Durham Fair is the largest fair in North America without a paid manager or staff. In addition to the members of the Durham Agricultural Fair Association and the hundreds of volunteers who help directly operate the Durham Fair, the volunteers of many participating local organizations contribute to the spirit of community that is not found at other larger agricultural fairs. These local organizations include schools, churches, clubs, civic groups, and more. The participation of so many community volunteers serves to balance the enormous commercial activity required to serve the needs and wants of our fairgoers which, in turn, is critical to achieving our mission of preserving and promoting the agricultural heritage of Connecticut.
Volunteer with the Durham Fair
The Durham Agricultural Fair is managed entirely by unpaid volunteers. We are always seeking people who share our interest in preserving Connecticut's agricultural heritage. If you would like to volunteer to help present our programs or participate in our many support operations, please contact us at 860-349-9495.
Durham Fair Foundation
The Durham Fair Foundation is a charitable non-profit organization founded in 1996 by the Durham Fair Association. The Foundation's mission is to preserve and promote Connecticut's agricultural heritage, history, rural life and the Durham Fair by sponsoring educational events and programs
