Show off your green thumb at the Stanislaus County Fair

            If you just spent the weekend dabbling in your garden, flowerbeds or hothouse, then there’s a plot for you at the Stanislaus County Fair.

            If you have a green thumb for garden design, berms, planter boxes or potted plants, enter your budding beauty into the Stanislaus County Fair.  Or, if you like to arrange—dry or silk bouquets or cut flowers—there’s a division for you, too, at your county fair. 

            But plant this date on your schedule because the deadline to enter your prize-winning bloomer is Thursday, July 3—whether you are a tiny tot, of preschool or school age, or older than that!   Of course, in most divisions you don’t actually deliver the actual item to the fairgrounds until fair time. 

            Here’s a partial list of floriculture divisions in which you can enter:  Novelty mini gardens, arrangements (dry/silk), arrangements (fresh), bouquets, cut flowers, tye-dyed flowers, nature garden scenes, terrariums, pressed flower books,  planter boxes or wine barrels, window boxes and window sills, dish gardens, cacti, plants, violets, begonias, herbs, orchids, roses and more!

Exhibitor entry forms must be received at the Stanislaus County Fair office by 5 p.m. on July 3, 2003, or be postmarked by July 3, 2003.  Handbooks with entry forms are available at the following locations Turlock locations: Turlock Library, Valley Distributors, Cloth & Quilts and in Hilmar at Hilmar Cheese.

Exhibitor entry forms are also available on-line at www.stancofair.com. 

Or, for more information, contact Harold Whaley, floriculture superintendent at the Stanislaus County Fair, at (209) 668-1333.
            Be part of the Stanislaus County Fair by displaying your talents and efforts and the chance to walk away with award ribbons, cash prizes and/or prize gifts.
