 540-554-2367

Cost: $5 per person

Ages: all

Drinking Fountain: none we noticed, but water sold for reasonable prices

Restroom: lots of clean port-o-potties

Parking: free, short walk from fair

Stroller-friendly: Yes, but off road/ jogging strollers would be easier than regular ones.

Pet-friendly: Not officially - the guide we were given (and didn’t read until we got home) clearly states no pets. However, we happened to have the dog with us and she was made so welcome we joked we should get her her own tent next year.

Goats & llamas and alpacas! Funnel cake! Honey Bees! A beautiful fall day! Craft booths! Live music! And to top it all off there was this beautiful set-up in the children’s fair where you could hear music from a band full of instruments like washboard bass, watch children climb all over a pile of hay bales while others danced and chased after a couple dozen hula hoops in the background. It was like a very good dream :)

11/07: Updated to add link to live action footage.
