Sow It, Grow It, Show It

Message From The 2025 President
For generations, the Orono Fair has stood as a vibrant testament to our community’s rich agricultural heritage, our enduring spirit, and our unwavering commitment to showcasing the very best of rural life. As we gather once again, we celebrate not just the bounty of our harvests and the skill of our artisans, but also the deep connections and camaraderie that make Orono such a special place.
This year, we have worked tirelessly to curate an experience that offers something for everyone. From exhilarating midway rides and captivating live entertainment to impressive livestock shows, competitive exhibits, and delicious food, the Orono Fair promises days filled with laughter, learning, and unforgettable memories for all ages.
The success of the Orono Fair is truly a collective effort, and I want to express my gratitude to the countless individuals who make this event possible. To our dedicated volunteers, who tirelessly dedicate their time and energy; to our generous sponsors, whose support is invaluable; to our talented exhibitors, who proudly share their hard work; and to our diligent staff, who ensure everything runs smoothly – thank you. Your passion and commitment are the heart and soul of this fair.
We invite you to immerse yourselves fully in the spirit of the 2025 Orono Fair. Reconnect with old friends, make new ones, and create lasting memories with your family. We hope you leave feeling inspired, entertained, and with a renewed appreciation for the vibrant community we share.
Thank you for being a part of our tradition. Enjoy the Fair!
Sincerely,
Nick Exner, President
