The exposition-style Agriculture Building was renovated in 1995. Updates included a new roof, all new windows and doors, and brick and mortar work.

The facility is now home to the famous butter cow as well as the Fair’s largest vegetables and fruits, a variety of floral contests and interesting animal exhibits such as the bees and the ostrich display.
