Durham Fair CT’s Largest Agricultural Event Turns 100! This year we celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the town “Grange” meeting that started the Durham Fair tradition we know and love today!

Many large agricultural fairs, as they have grown, have replaced volunteer management with a paid staff and have struggled to maintain the character of their fair. But the Durham Fair has successfully managed to remain 100% volunteer run and a true agricultural fair. It certainly stands as a monument to the cooperative spirit displayed by all who are involved in this annual fall event. The Durham Fair takes great pride in distributing profits from the fair back to the community through scholarships and support of numerous projects and events.
