The county fair season is coming to a close here in the Mohawk Valley as the Fonda Fair wraps up today. Today is the last county fair day of the year.

The most unique county fair is the Fonda Fair which includes Fulton and Montgomery counties. Like all county fairs in the area, The Fonda Fair continues to represent the area’s agricultural past with today’s focus on draft animals show, 4-H livestock auction, and Draft animal 6-Horse Exposition.
