For a lot of people, thoughts of the Missouri State Fair turn to food. And once again, the fair and Ford Motors are teaming up to turn food into discounts on fair admissions.
As they did last year, Missouri Farmers Care and Ford dealerships statewide have partnered to collect canned food for needy families, with donors receiving discounted admissions to the fair on Tuesday, Aug. 14. Through Aug. 13, a $1 off gate admission coupon will be given for each canned food item brought into a participating Missouri Ford dealership. The coupons will be redeemable for up to half off the cost of fair admission Aug. 14.
