4-H, FFA, and Grange youth from throughout San Diego County enter competitions in market and breeding animal divisions, horse, dog, and llama shows, and home economics categories. The livestock auction is an opportunity to support our local youth and our college scholarship fund, as well as to obtain the very best homegrown beef, pork, lamb, goat, rabbit, chicken, and turkey that money can buy.

Ramona Junior Fair is organized and operated through 100% volunteer efforts. Leaders from the community and participating 4-H, FFA and Grange Clubs come together to make this Fair possible.
