The East Central District Soil and Crop Improvement Association moved the East Central Farm Show to the new Lindsay Fairgrounds in 2008. The Farm Show started in the Manvers Community Centre in 1981, became the East Central Farm Show and moved to the Fenelon Township Community Centre, Cambray, in 1983 before moving to the Morrow building, Peterborough, in 1992.
The 40th East Central Farm Show was held on March 4th and 5th, 2020, in the Farmers’ Mutual Exhibition building at the Lindsay Fairgrounds. Over 180 exhibitors were present. The building has two wireless sound speakers, as the East Central Soil and Crop Association donated $5000 towards the sound system in the Autumn of 2010.
