Hawaiʻi State Farm Fair is an annual event that started in 1962 by the Hawaiʻi Farm Bureau (HFB) to promote Hawaii’s agricultural and ranching industries. Founded in 1948, HFB is the largest non-profit general agriculture organization representing approximately 2,000 farm and ranch family members statewide. Many other state, community, and business organizations support the Fair, including Hawaiʻi 4-H Livestock Council, which educates young people about the various aspects of agriculture. 4-H touches approximately 35,000 young people annually throughout the State of Hawaiʻi who exhibit livestock and demonstrate their knowledge and skills at the fair through presentations and performances. The fair is held on a working cattle ranch stretching from the mountain to sea. Exhibitors inform, educate and entertain fairgoers of all ages. Free for keiki and students. Want to volunteer?
