Did you know that every day is Earth Day on Canadian farms? And innovation is helping lead the way! New sensor systems can measure gamma radiation emitted by the natural decay of soil, or the wavelengths that nutrients reflect, helping create high-resolution digital maps of each field. These maps reveal chemical and physical properties that farmers can't see with the human eye — giving them powerful tools to manage and improve soil health. Read more at realdirtonfarming.ca.

Happy National Volunteer Week! Shoutout to the amazing volunteers who make Fergus Agricultural Society events possible. From setting up gates to running shows and exhibits at the Fergus Fall Fair, to teaching students on Agriculture Education Day, your time and heart keep our community tradition alive. We couldn’t do it without you – thank you for everything you do. #NVW2026 #IgniteVolunteerism

It’s soon planting season on local farms. DYK, one acre of soybeans can produce 40,000 servings of tofu or 9,500 litres of soy beverage?! #FarmFactFriday These are mature, harvested soybeans that won first prize at the Fergus Fall Fair.

Did you know we host an Agriculture Education Day for Grade 5 Students? Local schools are registered to attend the second annual event on June 3, 2026 -- and we can't wait! If you would like to help out, please email Rebecca at [email protected].

DYK? A mature sheep will eat approximately 3 kg of hay and grass per day – that’s about the same weight as a small bowling ball! #FarmFactFriday 📸 Emily Lennox Photography at the 2025 Fergus Fall Fair Sheep Show

Please join us in congratulating volunteer Mark Knierim on receiving a @ontarioagsocieties Central Canada Exhibition Scholarship towards his post-secondary studies. Way to go, Mark!

#FairFriday History: The fair took place at Victoria Park until 1997 when it moved to the current location at the Centre Wellington Community Sportsplex. Do you remember the fair in the park?
