Little Farmers – New Ohio State Fair Educational Program

The Little Farmers program is a new exhibit at the Ohio State Fair that is geared toward kids ages 3-10 to educate them about agriculture. The activities are hands-on and will be located on the lawn northeast of the Voinovich Livestock and Trade Center and includes stations on a variety of agricultural topics. Volunteers are needed throughout the fair to help with this exciting new program. Volunteers receive free admission for themselves and one guest if working at least one shift.
