It's finally fixed. The Fryeburg Fair began on a blue blustery day in March of 1851 when a few local farmers and merchants got together and decided to show their produce and other wares to the community. This assemblage provided motive for the formation of the Maine Department of Agriculture. Fryeburg Fair is proud of it's reputation as a progressive organization tempered by 150 years of tradition. Nestled in the foothills of the White Mountains, Fryeburg itself is a lovely western Maine village known for fertile farmlands and a prestigious Academy.

You'll find a slower pace and people eager to meet and speak with you.
