The Ashland Strawberry Faire is a traditional celebration to promote the community and celebrate the strawberry harvest. The Faire is held in June, on the campus of Randolph-Macon College campus. The Faire is a free, community and family-oriented event during which non-profit groups and churches raise funds and offer something for everyone. There are vendors selling arts, crafts, plants, and antiques to the thousands who attend. There are local businesses featured from Ashland and Hanover. The proceeds from the Faire provide scholarships and grants to local non-profit groups.
