The Delta Mill Society cooperates with the Festival committee by opening the Mill for special demonstrations, exhibits and tours. For many years The Delta Mill Society has hosted this event, with a sale of home baking, preserves, vegetable produce, crafts, plants, dried flowers, all donated by members of the community. Visitors arrive from Ottawa, Kingston, Brockville and many other centres to enjoy the country atmosphere of this lovely village, to purchase the sale products and to take part in the activities and demonstrations of special interest sponsored by the Society. Each Christmas season the Delta Mill Society installs large lighted candles and wreaths in the Mill windows and people come from many miles around to see this beautiful seasonal display. On the first day of the Fair there is an annual parade and the Mill Society always designs a float on a historical theme.
New members are always welcome.
