Enjoy Family Fun at the Agricultural Fair

It’s that time again. The Agricultural Fair opens today, October 8, and runs to October 22—two weeks of fun for the whole family. So, put on your most comfortable shoes and come to the State Road 41. Exhibits and rides will be open from 10 am until 11 pm every day.

This year the fair offers a variety of animals, rides, and exhibits, so get ready to enjoy the Ferris wheel, eat cotton candy, and pet all the smelly but lovely animals.

One of the most unbelievable exhibits is called “Too big to eat.” Here you can see huge tomatoes, cabbages, and other vegetables, some weighing up to 15 pounds.

There are plenty of places to eat at the fair. You’ll find a great variety of food such as French fries, candy apples, and popcorn.

The ticket price is $6.50 for adults and $3.50 for children under 12.
