It’s really fantastic to see that the agricultural community is alive and kicking in this state! I really enjoy the tractor pull and the food, the atmosphere is great and it’s a fun time for families.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Becca Hallenbeck

There’s definitely something for everyone here! My mom and I enjoyed seeing the animals, listening to live music, watching the barrel races, and shopping for fresh fruits, veggies, and jams on our way out. The Del’s Lemonade was also a plus!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Madison Panell

This was our first year attending and it was an incredible day. My family loved everything from the rides, to the games, to the foods and especially the animals. We met some great people and my daughter now has her very own bunny and hopes to one day be part of the day herself!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jennifer Wholey

I have been attending the fair since I was a toddler, and I have passed down the tradition to my children! I think I have only missed one year in 37 years! We look forward to it every August! Excellent EVERYTHING!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Danielle Lavoie

My boyfriend and I go every year! We love it! He enters his tractor, we love the concerts, trucks pulls and tractor pulls! Great place to go for a whole day of fun! Highly recommend this, even for a whole weekend! The greatest redneck fair ever!
