Your 2018 County Fair Schedule
The county fair boards are working hard to get everything up and ready for a very successful fair season. Many of the
fairs will have new attractions, music and food. Check out all of our local county fairs and what they have to offer this summer.
Get ready for mini doughnuts, walking tacos, and great 4-H shows! We had a blast the last couple of years participating in the fairs and are ready to hit them up again this year. MVTV Wireless is proud to announce that we will be a vendor at twelve local county fairs this year. Jackson County, Nicollet County, Renville County, Kandiyohi County, Redwood County, Murray County, Yellow Medicine County, Chippewa County, Pipestone County, Lac Qui Parle County, Cottonwood County and Lincoln County.
If you are not a typical county fair goer than you are missing out. We enjoy pig races, kid pedal pulls, live animal shows, talent shows, stock car racing and live music. This year many of the 4-H groups will be live streaming the animal judging. Here are a few pictures taken from the county fairs. You can find more exciting fair pictures on our FaceBook.

Local families in the Sacred Heart and Granite Falls communities have the privilege to be a part of the Music Together program. Music Together of Sacred Heart originated from a love for local youth and music shared by both Director, Jessica Thompson and Teacher, Carla Hamre.
We take pride in the program on the vision it holds to provide a non-intimidating platform and we desire this program for people in our large rural area to introduce their children to music. Our team is passionate about music and the development of children and we hope to create a fun, informal, social setting that spurs engagement and supports each child’s musical development.
Every child LOVES Music Together®! During the early years, it is extremely important that parents and caregivers be the ones who create a nurturing environment. Children are biologically “wired” to respond most to those with whom they have close bonds. Music Together classes help you build that bond. Best of all, it’s fun! By Jess and Carla
Check out Music Together of Sacred Heart for information on the program, how to register and to see all the fun pictures. Follow them at www.facebook.com/musictogethersh

Brouwer Berries – Local Berry Farm
Enjoy strawberry pie, berry muffins or just fresh berries? Brouwer Berries is the stop for you and your family to get the fresh berries your taste buds crave. Grab the family and enjoy something a little different together. There is nothing sweeter than a fresh, Minnesota-grown berry! After 15 years Brouwer Berries now have expanded to 6 acres of strawberries in production, of 8 different varieties to extend the fruiting seasons. Berries can be pre-ordered for pick-up at the farm or you can stop by the farm to pick-your-own!
Hello all you lovers of locally-grown, super-sweet, Minnesota strawberries. We see warm weather in the forecast for this week, and as you watch the cornfields take off, I hope you can imagine the activity that will be taking place in our strawberry field. The warmth will cause the plants to shoot for the sky. The pollinators will be working double time, and the sun will activate the sugars inside the strawberries. It’s going to be fun to watch.
Massive crop coming: Last year, we were picking off about three acres; this year we have six acres! We’ve never seen the fields look so good. All six acres are heavily loaded.
When? We are open and the season will last through the 2nd week of July.
How can I get strawberries? If you enjoy the outdoors you are going to really enjoy your visit! You
can pick your own berries while listening to the birds’ serenade. If you have time you may tour the beautiful flower & water gardens. Children are very welcome! To order strawberries please call:
(320) 967-4718 or you can find more information on our website.Facebook: If you are curious about what we’ve done to take care of the strawberry plants the past few months, I’ve been posting photos on Facebook . While you are there, be sure to “Like” us and/or to write a recommendation for others who are just hearing about our farm!
We’d love to have you and your kids out here, and they will enjoy the wagon ride, the small farm critters, and the berries!
