BC Fairs are taking British Columbians on a journey this summer with an online Buy BC-themed trivia challenge that explores local products made in the province.

The contest will help share fun facts about the amazing local products that are grown, raised, and produced in B.C., and celebrate our farmers, producers, and processors, while highlighting the many Buy BC products consumers can enjoy that are from their own backyards.

British Columbians can take part in the contest by visiting participating fairs' websites and social media pages to find digital scavenger items, which are agricultural facts related to a fair's region.

There are 48 fairs and exhibitions in communities around the province, including the Comox Valley Exhibition, which runs this year from August 26th to the 28th.

The Buy BC Trivia Contest runs from August 1st to September 5th. For more information, and for a list of all the fairs happening this summer and fall, visit https://www.bcfairs.ca/
