The Spruce Grove and District Agricultural Society is a non-profit organization.

Our Vision - The Spruce Grove and District Agricultural Society connects our community to the heart of agriculture and its history.

Our Mission - The Spruce Grove and District Agricultural Society provides facilities, programs and events that bring people together to celebrate agriculture's influence on the past, present and future of our community.

When the Alberta Wheat Pool company announced the demolition of the Grain Elevator in 1995, the Society stepped in, purchasing the 1958 Grain Elevator for $1, thereby preserving it as a lasting legacy of the Agricultural history of the area. Today it is a Provincial Historic Resource and a functioning museum, visited by several thousand visitors from all over.

Kids' Pioneer Days is an opportunity for the family to enjoy fun and games without technology! Taking a walk back to the "good ol' days" we have created a family fun event with various games. Everyone can learn about milking cows and how butter is made. We have our own "Betsy" (our wooden cow) to help us demonstrate this. There is fun for every age!

Aug17

The Alberta Open Farm Days is a time to experience agriculture in our community. The Grain Elevator is open for guided tours. Learn how grain was delivered, sorted and then transported from the elevator. Come and see the tractors and talk to the farmers who own them. Have kids? Bring them as we also have some games to entertain the young ones. More details will be posted as we get closer to the date!
