June 8th & 9th, Oskie Rice Arena
The 2013 Maui Upcountry 4H Livestock and Agriculture Fair will be held on June 8th and 9th, 2013 at the Oskie Rice Arena in Makawao. This year along with honoring Maui’s old time paniolo’s, we are celebrating the 125th Anniversary of Haleakala Ranch
The Fair promotes the Maui 4-H Livestock Association’s annual animal show and sale in which Maui’s youth present the farm animals they have raised for the year and offer them for sale at an auction. The education, knowledge and understanding that our 4-H kids are learning has groomed them well for their role in leadership of the 4-H Youth Board.
Maui County sponsors the Agricultural Tent where you can shop for Maui County Farm Bureau farm-fresh produce and plants. The Made-in-Hawaii Tent features all crafts and packaged foods. This year we have added a Country Store, where all hand made and baked goods are donated to raise money towards the Scholorship fund and support the future of our Keiki. Come visit our Ono food booths. We have Maui style food, such as BBQ chicken, beef and pork plates, lumpia, chow fun, salads, Chili, shrimp and desserts. Visit our website www.mauiupcountryfair. com.
