The Pennsylvania Farm Show, held annually in January in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania [USA], is a large state fair all in buildings that cover a large city-block.

Vendors provide lots of fair-type food. Here's my husband, Isaac, with our lunchtime Bloomin' Onion. 20220113

#FoodOnFriday #PAFarmShow
At an indoor state fair, an old man with white beard and white hair (what's left of it), dressed in a dark-red jacket and wearing a scarf of dark-red and light-red triangles, smiles because he's holding a white paper plate filled with a deep-fried "Bloomin' Onion", with a cup of light-yellow dip in its center.

Got my #PAFarmShow entries back! Super proud of the socks. Disappointed with the shawls. The volunteers tagged my items for me & they mixed up knit & crochet. The knitting judge left a lovely note about how she couldn't judge the crochet shawl. The knit shawl got 3rd in crochet...? 🤦🏻‍♀️🧶 🧦 #fiberarts
A pair of hand knit socks with a 1st place sticker and a Best In Show ribbon. A crochet shawl and a knit shawl, side by side. A close up of the knit shawl's 3rd place win in the wrong category. A close up of the note left by the knitting judge on the crochet item, which was tagged in the wrong category.

Apparently, I'm quite skilled at driving a sled pulled by draft horses! It was my first Feed Scurry at the #PAFarmShow and I managed to edge out several of my colleagues to take first place. It was a fun event that raises money for agricultural scholarships for PA students.

The Feed Scurry at the #PAFarmShow is always a blast and a great way to promote all things agriculture! We are truly blessed here in Pennsylvania and I'm proud to support this vital industry. #PAFS2026

The colored apples form a stylized US flag with 1776 written over 2026 in the center of the state. A large rectangular wooden display tray filled with red, white, light brown, and blue skinned potatoes in the shape of a US flag with four broad red / white stripes.Three people stand in front of the display tray whose bottom is at about shoulder height of the shortest person, and slopes back toward the open ceiling of the PA Farm Show’s Main Hall. A sign below the display reads: Pennsylvania Co-operative Potato Grower Association. Winners Stand of the Vegetable area of the PA Farm Show Main Hall. Two head of cabbage with a purple Champion ribbon rest on a raised stand with a US flag patterned cloth cover. A large orange pumpkin with a First prize sticker sits to the left of the cabbages.

This was my 3rd year competing in the #PAFarmShow Celebrity Feed Scurry and I think I finally have it down! I won my heat but more importantly it was a fun event that raises funds to promote our state's #1 industry, agriculture! #PAFS2026

Omg, I just thought of something. The sow has mustard to put on your sausages, and the cow has ketchup to put on your burgers! 😂

They’re even thematic!!!!!

Hey, there #uglydogs! I forget who was previously discussing condiment cows, but I saw my first Condiment Sow this evening at the PA Farm Show, and knew I had to share.
A “condiment sow” next to a “condiment cow” in a large food court. The sow is a relief made to look like a female pig, with four “teats” hanging under her belly for people to squeeze mustard on their food. The cow is a relief made to look like a cow, with four “udders” containing ketchup and or bbq sauce.

I think the only reason I wouldn't come back to the Pennsylvania Farm Show is that the traffic getting into the Farm complex is horrific. #pafarmshow

Today we went to the Pennsylvania Farm Show, in Harrisburg, PA [USA].

Here's this year's butter sculpture, in honor of the USA's 250th year.
12 Jan 2026

#PAFarmShow #ButterSculpture
A butter sculpture, made with lots of butter (for scale, the enclosure is about 3 meters high). The theme, printed on the front, is "Growing A Nation". At right is a Liberty Bell; at left is Betsy Ross with a flag on her lap; standing by the buttery Declaration of Independence are three figures.
