Horticulture Department

Important Information

In order to help the Horticulture Department in entering all vegetables in the proper categories, there will not be additional categories added at sign-up and only those in the book will be recognized.
Where there are only one or two exhibits in a category, judging will be determined by the judges based on the quality of the exhibits.
Only home grown produce raised by the exhibitor will be allowed to be exhibited. Any exhibitor found to exhibit purchased produce will forfeit ribbons, premiums and, where applicable, sweepstakes.
Exhibits will be received 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 14, 2022 and 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 Noon on Monday, August 15, 2022 only.
Display Tips: Uniformity is a key in displaying more than one of any item. Do not deform fruit or vegetables by cutting off parts. Display consumer size items, not too large or small and damage free.
Items need to be picked up on Sunday, August 21, 2022 between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m.
Must be a resident of Rockingham County, including the City of Harrisonburg.
