Event Description
The Ottawa Valley Seed Growers Association traces back to 1927, after the First World War, when a group of Ottawa Valley farmers banded together with an aim to help one another merchandise their field crops. The OVSGA was formed, and J.H. Findlay of Arnprior was named the first OVSGA President. Together with the help of local agricultural representatives, the group held the first seed fair at Renfrew Collegiate. The introduction of new and better varieties, merchandizing of increased production, and the continual updating of agricultural information were the founding objectives of the Seed Fair, and continue to drive the modern rendition of the show.
