Pacific County Fair – 2025

The 2025 Pacific County Fair opens Wednesday, August 20th and runs through Saturday, August 23rd. The Master Gardener display area will be staffed by volunteers from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm each day of the fair. Stop by and share your gardening experiences with us! We’ll be on hand to answer any of your plant questions, especially growing plants in our Pacific County climate.

We have activities for youth including a scavenger hunt, bookmark creations and other fun things to do during your visit!

Additionally, there will be tool sharpening available from 12:00 to 6:00 each day of the fair! Bring along those human-powered loppers and clippers to get them “tuned up” for your fall garden clean-up!

The Master Gardeners are university-trained volunteers who will provide you with relevant and unbiased research-based information focused on environmentally friendly gardening practices. We hope you will be able to visit our Master Gardener display area for FREE advice on gardening, plant problems, plant identification, pest management and soil improvement.
Common questions for the Master Gardener volunteers are:

• What plants grow best in the Pacific Northwest?
• What can I grow in the maritime environment?
• How can I test my soil?
• What will I have problems growing where I live?

To help us better diagnose a plant problem, please try to share as much of the following information as possible:

• What type of damage are you seeing and when did it start?
• Which parts of the plant are affected: flower, leaf, stem, fruit, etc.?
• How is the plant watered and how much?
• Where is the plant located; in a garden bed or in the lawn, next to a driveway or house, in full or part sun, facing what direction?
• Sharing photographs of your plant problem, plant identification or insect identification is helpful.
• Bring a sample if you can
