Aldergrove Agricultural Fair & Festival Association

Promoting Agriculture Through Education & Community Networking Since 1912

The Aldergrove Agricultural Fair & Festival Association (AAFFA), incorporated in 1984, is a non-profit society run by volunteers that fosters community pride within Aldergrove and promotes Aldergrove to its neighbouring communities.

As an umbrella organization, AAFFA is dedicated to bringing together citizens, community groups, service clubs, and organizations to put on Aldergrove Fair Days, the Canada Day Parade, and the Christmas Light Up Parade in December.

The Aldergrove Agricultural Fair & Festival Association coordinates the agricultural side of Aldergrove’s annual Fair Days. Activities include:

  • presentation of the Century Award during the annual Fair
  • educational exhibits on agricultural activities and products
  • demonstrations and talks
  • children’s activities
  • prize exhibiting – garden, homemaking, and craft contests for categories ranging from asparagus to zucchinis, and from playdough to photography

See Prize Exhibits for information on entering your agricultural exhibit in this year’s Fair.

AAFFA owns Coghlan Community Hall, located at 6795 256 St., Langley, BC. Generating income through rental, the hall has been used as a site for many weddings as well as movie and TV shoots.

Regularly Scheduled Meetings

Meetings held 7:00 pm the first Wednesday of each month. The AGM is typically held in October.
