Fair Grove Area Chamber of Commerce
Fair Grove is a marvelous place to live, learn and do business. Our geographic location offers up a small town atmosphere and quiet country living, yet easy access to nearby cities. A rich history, popular annual festival and strong school system all contribute to what makes this an attractive community.
The Fair Grove Area Chamber of Commerce is a proud civic partner and promoter. We show this through sponsorship of the yearly Easter Egg Hunt, Christmas Parade and scholarships for graduating high school seniors. The Chamber also supports business initiatives that include the Main Street Christmas and Small Town Summer Nights campaigns designed to draw local and outside traffic to participating member businesses.
Recently two of our members, The Fair Grove Historical and Preservation Society and Monroe Coffee Co. were recognized by the Rural Missouri Magazine in their Best Of Rural Missouri contest. The Chamber congratulates both of these worthy recipients for all the hard work and dedication that are behind such wonderful recognition.
Membership in the Chamber is open to all who wish to work together for the betterment of the Fair Grove business community. We pride ourselves on being a friendly group and a great place to make contacts, stay abreast of local events, and help plan for common promotions. Join us when we meet the first Tuesday of each month at noon in the meeting room of the fire station at 340 W. Eagle Ridge Road. Complete membership information can be found at fairgrovechamber.org

Fair Grove Heritage Reunion
The Heritage Reunion is a major event every year in Fair Grove. Originally envisioned as a craft fair to raise money to refurbish Wommack Mill, this two-day event on the last full weekend of September attracts tens of thousands of people who enjoy visiting 375 craft and food booths, watching craft demonstrations and touring a working steam powered grist mill.
You can see it in action, as well as a working sawmill and blacksmith shop, as well as exhibitions of other period crafts and skills. There are two stages with musical acts, and it's all free.
Located in the heart of the business district, Wommack Mill attracts tourists and travelers to the retail district the year round.
