You can also pick up specialty delights, including gourmet chocolate, brick-oven baked bread, artisan butter, barbecue sauces, jams, jellies, coffee, and more.
  
  
• Anvil & Skillet Throws
  Another big draw for the Fryeburg Fair is the annual anvil and skillet throws. Guys, get your muscles ready to heave an anvil as far as you can throw it! Gals, you get to do the same with a skillet! Enter the contest to have your chance at some great prizes. Just remember that the anvil and skillet will both be provided by the fair, and there won't be any practice throws allowed. 
  
  
• Agriculture Exhibition
  This year's Agriculture Exposition might just be the best the annual Fryeburg Fair has ever seen. You'll discover many diverse talents from local people who want to showcase their gardening, home arts, and crafts expertise. You'll find quite a few handmade items, such as woodworking and quilts. There will also be cooking and baking contests based around regional foods. The highlight for this year will be a parent-child baking contest with recipes incorporating M&Ms.
  
  
• Livestock Exhibits
  Livestock, livestock, and more livestock! Just like so many past years of the Fryeburg Fair, you'll find a cacophony of animals to see and enjoy. You'll be able to feast your eyes on many farm favorites, including horses, cows, sheep, goats, pigs, and chickens. There will also be several llamas and alpacas at the fair, which are always an exciting sight. Your kids will absolutely love seeing all of these animals in one area.

This year's Fryeburg Fair might just go into the history books (or at least the town ledger) as the best it's ever had. Contact us to find your dream home near the fair so that you can enjoy all the festivities every single year.
