The Dryden & District Agricultural Society recognized their best this past weekend at the Fairgrounds.
Over 30 awards were given out recognizing the best in cattle, poultry, horses, vegetables and much more.
The highest honour was The Edye Memorial Trophy which was won by Jessie Pettinger.
Pettinger notes she put in a lot of work throughout the year so she wasn’t scrambling in the end.
Pettinger says this year she focused her efforts on gardening, but did also get involved in some crafts and baking.
