Milverton Agricultural Society
The Milverton Agricultural Society is a registered non-profit charitable organization established in 1863. It operates as a volunteer-driven entity focused on promoting agricultural awareness, environmental stewardship, and community engagement through educational programs, events, and public initiatives[1][2][4].

History
Founded as a legal entity in 1863 during Ontario’s agricultural expansion, the society has served the Milverton community for over 160 years. It became a cornerstone for rural development, emphasizing agricultural education and seasonal traditions[2][4].

Activities and Programs
The society organizes annual events such as a Bluegrass Concert (March), Family Fun Fair (May), Tractor Pull (July), Fall Expo (September), and the Happily, Ever After Ball (November). These events aim to celebrate local culture, agriculture, and craftsmanship[4].

Ambassador Program
A leadership initiative for individuals aged 17–23, the Ambassador Competition provides training in public speaking, interview skills, and community service. Participants compete for bursaries and opportunities to represent the society at district and provincial levels[4].

Facilities
The society manages the Milverton Agri Centre (MAC), a multipurpose venue hosting events, workshops, and seasonal activities. The facility is available for public rentals and serves as a cultural hub for agricultural education[4].

Governance
Managed by a volunteer board of 10–12 members, the society emphasizes community-driven decision-making and collaborates with provincial organizations like the Ontario Association of Agricultural Societies (OAAS) to align with regional agricultural priorities[1][4].
