Wed, Oct 1 2025

PERRY, GA - Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Tyler J Harper has announced the return of the Georgia Grown building to the 2025 Georgia National Fair, set for October 2-12 at the Georgia National Fairgrounds in Perry, GA. This year's exhibits will deliver a dynamic mix of education and entertainment for fairgoers of all ages. Featured attractions include the popular Baby Barn, a variety of new and returning exhibits, and expanded opportunities to engage with Georgia's leading industry-agriculture. In celebration of the United States' 250th birthday, the building will also showcase a special America 250 theme throughout.

"We're excited to once again highlight Georgia's #1 industry and the farm families who fuel its success through interactive and educational exhibits," said Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Tyler J Harper. "The Georgia Grown building offers a unique look into the people, products, and innovations driving agriculture in our state, and we are looking forward to welcoming the thousands of visitors that'll stop by this year."

Returning this year are two crowd favorites-the Georgia Grown Baby Barn and the Georgia Grown Market. Fairgoers can experience the unforgettable moment of witnessing live calf births while shopping for locally made Georgia Grown products, all in one place. Plus, on October 6 and 7, special guest Cheyenne Bastian-Brown, the American Honey Queen, will be on site to meet visitors and take part in a variety of engaging activities.
