Fair Horticulture Exhibits​

Baxter County Fair Horticulture Exhibit

Baxter County Master Gardeners manage the exhibit listings for the horticulture section of the Baxter County Fair Book. We oversee the horticulture room, including the Junior and Senior Horticulture Exhibits at the Baxter County Fair. Coordinators recruit and train other Master Gardeners to register exhibits and to staff the horticulture room at fair time. This is an annual event, not to be confused with the fairgrounds garden outside of the fair building, which is maintained by master gardeners year around.

Three informational guides, developed by MGs, help guide the public to be better exhibitors. These guides provide detailed information about selecting, preparing and judging fruits, herbs, vegetables, plants, flowers and floral arrangements for competition at the fair. Click on these booklets, listed below, for more information.  
          Exhibiting Flowers and Plants
          Exhibiting Vegetables, Herbs, Fruits and Field Crops
          Principles of Floral Arrangement


​An exhibit grooming table is also available to exhibitors, staffed by Master Gardeners during the fair registration hours to assist with final entry preparations.
