Open Class Farm Crops, Vegetables, and Fruits Judging

Farming has deep roots in Dodge County, and love for the land is evident in the exhibits featured in the open-class farm crops, vegetables, and fruits division. Classes include husked corn, corn stalks, threshed corn, grain sheaves, soybean sheaves, hay sheaves, baled slices and ensiled forages, standard vegetables, unusual vegetables, potatoes, and fruits. Read the open-class exhibitor book for more detailed information on each class. Judging will be held Wednesday of the fair at 9 a.m. In addition to awards of first, second, third, and fourth place in each category, “best entry” awards will be presented in some of the classes. Exhibitors and fairgoers are invited to sit and watch the judging process. Sponsors for the farm crops, vegetables, and fruits division include, but are not limited to, Dodge County Forage Council, Jung’s Seed Company, and the Strohschein Family.
