Exhibitor Pre-Registration for 2026

We look forward to seeing you at the Deerfield Fairgrounds

Deerfield, New Hampshire

Friday, May 1, 2026, 9am-5pm
Saturday, May 2, 2026, 9am-4pm

In its 43rd year, the New Hampshire Farm, Forest and Garden Expo continues to provide a community space where we honor traditions new and old. This two day “continuum” of time educates and entertains, while it connects us to the roots of our resources in the most meaningful ways. Where else can you take a horse drawn wagon ride, learn about how to begin beekeeping, try out the newest compact farm equipment, learn how to manage your land to protect its future conservation?

Maybe instead you came to watch the timber competition, listen to some live music, indulge in some maple cotton candy, pet some animals and watch your kids grow with lots of hands-on activities? Ok, maybe you’re just curious about homesteading and becoming more self-resourceful…you could take a class from the UNH Extension, engage with conservation agencies, learn more about Amateur Radio Communications or even solar power solutions for your property needs?

There really isn’t another one stop shop for the expertise and camaraderie that is on display this May 2nd and 3rd at the Deerfield Fairgrounds. Come be part of the evolution of traditions in this annual event at the New Hampshire Farm, Forest and Garden Expo.

This is a family friendly event!
