Fair season is right around the corner. State Ag Director David Daniels said Paulding County opens the state schedule with its local fair on June 11th.
"It's an excellent opportunity for agriculture to shine," said Daniels. "It's a good opportunity for those young 4H'ers and FFA'ers and everybody else who participates in the county fair to learn an awful lot about leadership skills and work ethic that's going to follow them through the rest of their lives."
Locally, the Pickaway County Fair opens June 16th, the Fayette County Fair begins on July 16th, Pike County's fair opens on July 27th, the Ross County Fair starts on August 4th, and the Highland County Fair gets underway on September 1st.
