TWIN CITIES, MN — Fair fans can’t be together for the usual Great Minnesota Get-Together this year. However, fair fans can still celebrate with two specially designed kits now on sale; the "State Fair Party In-A-Box" and the "Crop Art to Go" kit.

The State Fair Party In-A-Box ($40, includes shipping) includes the items you need for a party of six: commemorative tickets, plates, cups, paper hats, party favors, prizes, a vintage State Fair ribbon, pennant garland décor and a party game.

The Crop Art to Go kit ($25, includes shipping) has everything you need to get started with this famous Minnesota State Fair tradition: seven varieties of seeds, eight beginner illustrations to use as design patterns, a 5” x 7” canvas, glue, paintbrush, toothpicks, pencil and directions.
