ELLSWORTH, WI – The Pierce County Fair is excited to announce the generous donation of handmade placemats to the Pierce County Nutrition Program.

Many thanks are extended to our talented fair exhibitors who dedicated their time and creativity to the “Placemat Challenge,” producing beautiful, fall-themed placemats for this community initiative. Entries were part of the “Open Class Home Furnishings category, where each placemat was judged and then gifted to the Nutrition Program to share with clients throughout Pierce County.

Several exhibitors went above and beyond by creating multiple placemats, ensuring that many individuals across our communities could enjoy these cheerful works of art.

Looking ahead, the 2026 and 2027 “Placemat Challenge” will feature Christmas Stockings, with Shop With a Cop selected as the recipient organization. Those interested in participating are encouraged to contact the Pierce County Fair Office at 715-273-6874 or visit the Fair’s website at co.pierce.wi.us/departments/fair.

Join us for the Pierce County Fair August 13 through 16, 2026.
