The Fifth Annual CFOV Farm Festival Enjoyed by Many
13 September 2026 The Valley Community closed out summer 2026 and welcomed in the fall season with some downhome farm fun! Valley residents and visitors enjoyed a beautiful evening of music, food, games, and camaraderie in a verdant field shadowed by the historic Sunnyfield Farm barn. Sponsored by Community Foundation of Ogden Valley, the event was created in 2021 to celebrate the amazing work done by our local nonprofit organizations. It has since grown into one of the “must do” calendar events of the year. The Proper Way set the tone with their unique Americana sound, and friends and neighbors enjoyed food from Lucky Slice, Los Churros del Norte, I’ll Be Dipped and Bad Bevs. It was a true celebration of our local charm. Everyone enjoyed watching the kids play games and participate in activities like archery, potato sack races, ring toss and painting. New this year, kids visited the nonprofit booths to collect stickers and complete a prize “passport”. One passport was drawn to win a day pass from our friends at Thrashin’ - a new, local Ogden Valley business offering an indoor climbing wall and integrated skate park. Tanner Cozzens was the lucky winner! The highlight of the evening was the Opportunity Drawing! Diane Gardiner walked away with a prize package worth over $2,500! We’d like to thank everyone who bought tickets for the drawing and participated in the silent auction. In all, over $7,800 was raised to help the CFOV support 17 local nonprofit organizations. A very special thanks to the following local businesses who generously donated items for the Opportunity Drawing and Silent Auction:
The Volunteer Board of the CFOV is grateful to our community for their continued support!
