ACF Horticulture Sponsorship Form

The Horticulture Committee is excited to bring two contests to the Austin County Fair, Miniscapes and Container Plants. Miniscapes will be open to individuals or teams of two (2) with a total limit of 24 individual/teams on a first come, first serve basis. Entries will be completed, paid and submitted online. Miniscapes will be designed based on the theme for the year.

Container Plants will be open to individuals who will grow their entries for 6 weeks prior to the fair. There is No Theme for Container Plants. Entries will contain three (3) species of plants, measuring no more than 30x30 and not weighing more than 50lbs. Entries will be completed and paid online. This year there is no limit to the number of entries accepted. 
The Horticulture committee is very proud of our exhibitors who have gone on to participate in various State level contests such as the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo Horticulture contests of Miniscapes and Container plants.

A schedule of Events and a complete list of rules are available below. Questions can be submitted via email at ACFHoriculture@gmail.com.  Please join our Facebook page ACF Horticulture!

This contest would not be possible without generous sponsors. As a sponsor your name or the name of your business will be displayed on a banner during the week of the fair. If you would like to sponsor the Horticulture Contest, please see the form listed on the website.
