This show is a good opportunity for the public to meet regional gourd artisans, crafters and growers.

A Ribbon Competition (updated 2/23/13) will be held again this year with approximately 22 classes and judging by American Gurd Society Certified Judges according to AGS Judging Criteria.

Our theme for this year is
