Join us at the 45th Annual Apple Country Fair
Showcasing the work of more than 90 local crafters, the 45th annual Apple Country Fair will be held on the Brookfield Town Common, Saturday, October 12, 2024 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Fair also will feature live music, lawn games, baked goods, food trucks, raffles, and an apple pie contest — all to benefit the Brookfield Community Club, a charitable organization that makes grants to enrich community life.
Fair-goers can browse and buy hand-knit sweaters and blankets, carved wooden bowls and décor, beaded jewelry, specialty soaps and lotions, hand-crafted toys, locally-produced honey, and more.
The RAFFLE will offer chances to win prizes including the community-stitched Quilt, family passes to local museums and attractions, and gift certificates to local restaurants and stores.
Entries for the APPLE PIE CONTEST will be accepted at the Brookfield Fire Station next to the Town Hall until 9:45 a.m. on the day of the Fair. Judging categories are for children under 12, ages 13-19, and adults ages 20 and older.
Volunteers are always needed during the Fair to help with the raffles, set-up and many other tasks. To volunteer, please sign-up HERE.
