Thank you for supporting 4-H youth activities at The Big E. Your generous contribution will aid us in our mission to promote agriculture, education, industry, and family entertainment while preserving our New England heritage. Here at Eastern States Exposition, we believe Agriculture is Our Culture, and agricultural fairs like The Big E provide producers with a national stage from which to showcase their accomplishments while entertaining and educating the public.
Please send your donation no later than June 1 to allow time for purchasing awards prior to the show. Orders placed after June 1 may not arrive on time for the event.
