Coombs Fair & Fairgrounds

Coombs Fair & Fairgrounds Arrowsmith Agricultural Association: Home of the Coombs Fair. Celebrating agriculture and community

We are a registered non-profit society, with roots back to 1913, when district farmers held the first Coombs Fall Fair to showcase local food crops and livestock. Although the name has changed over the years, the mandate of our organization has remained the same, and our presence in the community is growing. The Purpose of our Association is to:
a) to foster community spirit;
b) to promote culti

vation of the soil and general development of agricultural resources;
c) to facilitate, directly or through other associations, the education and personal development of people of all ages in agricultural and farming activities;
d) to conduct an agricultural fair and exhibition.
