Founders' Giving Opportunities
For a limited time, we are offering an opportunity to become a "Founder." To qualify, you may give a gift of $5,000 or more as a one-time donation, or you may pledge your gift over a five-year period. As a Founder, your name will be added to our permanent "Founders Wall" that will be on display at the Puyallup Fair & Events Center for generations to come.

Current Projects

Traveling Farm
Many children know woefully little about agricultures' role in their daily lives - where food comes from, what life on a farm is like, why it is important to have farms in our communities, etc.

Often, children and school districts do not have the financial means to obtain transportation to the Fair and are deprived of the opportunity to experience the live animals and the agriculture education available to others. Consequently, teachers have said how important it is to bring the Traveling Farm to their students.

What's more electronic entertainment dominates the world of today's children and leaves less and less time to engage in real-life, hands-on, interactive learning experiences.

Project Proposal: First, a new vehicle will be designed and outfitted to meet the needs of teachers, students, school districts and healthy/safe animal contact practices. The vehicle will offer a walk-through facility that can be parked in a school parking lot, or a nearby parking area, and will be of a size and caliber to withstand high usage by thousands of visitors over many years.
