2024 Palmerston Fair Community Project

This year the Agricultural Society is partnering with All Aboard Palmerston’s beautification project. In 2023 they created a beautiful tribute to our Veterans by making poppies that were then put on display on old 81 during the November time of Remembrance. 

Competition Rules:

Crochet as many Poppies as you can. Select your best 3 poppies, mount them on cardboard and they will be judged at the fair.

Prizes: 1st ~ $10     2nd ~ $8     3rd ~ $5

All poppies that you crochet will be donated to the display project and fair entries will also be donated to the beautification committee. Yarn and patterns are available by contacting: taylor.keunen@gmail.com
