GRANGE YOUTH FAIR PROGRAM

The Grange Youth Fairs Program (GYFP) is more than a youth development program — it’s a place where Grange families come together to learn, lead, and contribute to their local community. Rooted in the rich traditions of the Grange, GYFP invites kids ages 5 to 19 and their families to participate in hands-on projects, leadership experiences, and fair exhibitions that build confidence, character, and connection.

Whether it’s raising livestock, sewing a quilt, growing vegetables, or building a woodworking project, youth are guided by parents and adult mentors every step of the way. Families work side-by-side — helping with record books, prepping for fair day, and cheering each other on — all while creating lasting memories and building valuable life skills.

Grange Youth Fairs Program is open to all youth, including homeschoolers, rural families, and those simply looking for a values-driven, family-friendly experience.

In the Grange Youth Fairs Program, your whole family is part of the journey — not just the audience.
